Hong Kong-Style Chicken Chow Mein

Hong Kong-Style Chicken Chow Mein
  • 14 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg white, beaten
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 (8 ounce) package Chinese egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 spring onions, chopped, or to taste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine (sake)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 cup fresh bean sprouts, or to taste


  1. Mix chicken with egg white, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, and sesame oil in a bowl.
  2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add egg noodles; cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Drain. Spread out on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a wok over medium heat. Cook and stir noodles in the hot oil until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  4. Stir chicken into the wok; cook, stirring frequently, until white, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl using a slotted spoon.
  5. Pour chicken stock into the wok; stir in spring onions, soy sauce, rice wine, white pepper, and black pepper.
  6. Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch and water together in a small bowl until smooth. Pour into the wok. Stir in oyster sauce. Add chicken and bean sprouts; cook and stir until chicken is tender and sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes. Serve over noodles.
