Clean Eating - Chicken Lo Mein
As always, I hit
another Pinterest jackpot. Sometimes it a miss but usually Pinterest is a hit
for me. This recipe I found was nothing less than awesome! I am not a huge fan
of Chinese foods but I really liked this one. My little one also really enjoyed
it as well, which is rather surprising since he is two! Aside from the sodium
in the soy sauce this recipe is pretty healthy and very filling. Hope you love
it as much as we did!
Ingredients
· ½ lb. boneless skinless
chicken breast, cut into small chunks
· 1 - 13.25 to 16 oz. box
of linguini or fettuccini pasta, broken in half (I used whole wheat)
· 4 medium carrots, peeled
and cut in thin 3 inch long strips
· 1 medium red bell
pepper, cut in thin 3 inch long strips
· 4 cloves garlic, minced
· ¼ cup low sodium soy
sauce
· 1 teaspoon garlic powder
· 1 teaspoon corn starch
· 1 tablespoon sugar
· ½ teaspoon red pepper
flakes
· 4 cups organic chicken
broth
· 2 teaspoons extra virgin
olive oil
Instructions
1. Add the chicken, then
the pasta, then the remaining ingredients to a large stockpot and cover. Bring
to a rolling boil over high heat. Stir and reduce the heat to medium-low.
2. Cook covered for about
15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook until most of the liquid is gone and
the chicken is cooked through.
3. Remove the lid and let
the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
