Ingredients
Instructions
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook chow mein noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water. In a small bowl, whisk together low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, toasted sesame oil, brown sugar, cornstarch, and water. Set aside.
Place a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the oil and let it get shimmering hot. Add minced garlic and grated ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the drained noodles to the wok. Toss in the aromatic oil for 1-2 minutes to heat through and lightly crisp in spots.
Stir the sauce mixture again and pour over the noodles. Toss constantly for 1-2 minutes as the sauce thickens and coats the noodles. Add the bean sprouts in the last 30 seconds of cooking. Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve immediately.
