This low-carb twist on the classic lo-mein dish will tickle your taste buds and keep you feeling satisfied.
Introduction to Chicken Zoodle Lo-Mein
Chicken Zoodle Lo-Mein is a flavorful and healthy alternative to traditional lo-mein dishes. By replacing traditional wheat-based noodles with zucchini noodles, also known as "zoodles," we create a low-carb, gluten-free, and nutrient-rich dish that is perfect for those following a ketogenic or low-carb lifestyle.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium-sized zucchinis, spiralized
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup of snap peas, ends trimmed
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 carrots, julienned
- 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon of grated ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Heat a tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add a bit more sesame oil if needed and sauté the minced garlic and grated ginger until fragrant.
- Add the sliced onion, snap peas, red bell pepper, and julienned carrots. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Add the spiralized zucchini noodles to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, just until they are heated through.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce and oyster sauce. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and zoodles, tossing to coat everything evenly.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add red pepper flakes if desired. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the Chicken Zoodle Lo-Mein hot.
