Ingredients

Sauce:

3 rounded tablespoons hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons dark soy, eyeball it
3 tablespoons water, eyeball it
2 teaspoons hot sauce, eyeball it

Everything Lo Mein:

1 pound spaghetti
Salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
2 large eggs, beaten
3 chicken breast cutlets, thinly sliced into strips
3 thin cut pork chops, thinly sliced into strips
Black pepper
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 inches fresh ginger, chopped or grated
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
6 scallions, cut into 3-inch lengths then sliced lengthwise
1/2 pound shiitake mushrooms, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into quarters, seeded, then sliced
1 small can sliced water chestnuts
2 cups fresh bean sprouts, 4 generous handfuls or 1/2 pound shredded cabbage, your choice

Directions

Mix together sauce ingredients and reserve.

Bring pasta water to a boil, salt water and cook spaghetti to al dente.

While pasta cooks, heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large, nonstick skillet over high heat. When oil ripples, add beaten eggs and scramble them to light golden brown, remove and reserve.

Season the meat with salt, pepper and coriander. Heat the remaining vegetable oil to a ripple, then add meat and stir-fry 4 minutes, push meat to the side and add ginger, garlic and veggies. Stir-fry veggies 2 minutes, then drain and add pasta and eggs back to skillet. Pour sauce over the spaghetti and toss to combine. Turn off pan. Toss 30 seconds and let the liquids absorb.

Excellent Chinese Food!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was really good! I was always nervous to make Chinese food at home cause it seemed complicated but this was really... easy. I not a big meat eater (only eat it about 1 or 2 times a week) so I only used 1 chicken breast and 1 piece of pork. I also do not care for red pepper or water chestnuts so I substitued shredded carrots and baby corn. I WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! I also agree with the others that you should double the sauce recipe.Read more

Winner!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Oh I am impressed! We are so sick of the normal comfort food I was searching for something different to make. I looked at... this recipe and read the reviews and went to the store. As soon as I got home I starting choppong and slicing. ( I didn't get cutlets or pork chops, I got boneless breasts and pork tenderlion) I got everything rocking and rolling in no time. I doubled the sauce as others suggested. (I am going to packing this for lunches.) Boy it is a big pan of yum! I just can't stop eatting it. and I am not all that crazy about asian food. If your reading this, just do it. just make this, it is awesome! If you have nothing in your kitchen but a bottle of Soy sauce. ( like me) It will cost ya about 10 dollars. Thanks Rachael, You taught me how to cook! (don't tell mom!)Read more

Better than any restaurant!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I thought this dish seemed as if it would have too much protein (eggs, chicken AND pork?) but I'm glad I was wrong! The... flavors melded so well! It was spicy, salty and delicious! Anytime I'm craving Asian cuisine I will absolutely call on this recipe! Thanks yet again Rachael!Read more

Good with a few modifications
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I really liked this recipe and will make it again, but with a few changes. I would suggest halving it. As is, there is just... too much food to handle easily -- we'll be eating leftovers for at least a couple of days. I also plan on going a little easier on the hoisin sauce and the noodles next time. But other than that, it's great. I definitely recommend giving it a try.Read more

"Best Chinese food you've ever made" said my husband!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

And it was scrumptious!!! As others have said, it makes a lot of food. We had it for dinner, along with some potstickers,... and we packed 4 lunches for the week.......lots of food! I omitted the mushrooms and pork, and added shrimp. I also doubled the sauce and it was delish!!!!Read more
