How to Make Healthy Chicken Or Shrimp Or Pork Lo Mein

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  4. Add 1 pound of your protein choice (chicken breast, shrimp, lean pork loin, or lean steak), cut into bite-sized pieces, and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring continuously, until browned.
  5. Add 1 cup broccoli florets, 1/2 cup sliced carrots, 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color), 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and cook for 3-5 minutes, until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  6. Push the protein and vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. Crack 2 large eggs into the empty space.
  7. Cook for 2 minutes, then scramble until fully cooked. Stir into the protein and vegetable mixture.
  8. Add the cooked pasta to the pan.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Add to the pan along with 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
  10. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and everything is heated through.
  11. Serve immediately and garnish with sesame seeds (optional).
