  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce low-sodium 0.5oz
  • 1 tsp Curry powder 0.1oz
  • 1 tsp Ginger minced 0.1oz
  • 1 tsp Lemongrass or lemongrass paste 0.1oz
  • 2½ tsp Extra virgin olive oil 0.4oz
  • ½ cup Mushrooms raw slices 1.2oz

Instructions

  • Place the noodles into a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water. Stand for 3 minutes. Drain.
  • To make the dressing: In a jar with a lid, combine sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, curry powder, ginger, lemongrass and 2 tablespoons of water. Secure the lid and shake well to combine.
  • In a wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, carrot and bell pepper and stir-fry 1 minute. Add the green beans, stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the noodles and stir-fry for a further 30 seconds, tossing gently to combine.
  • Add the peas, celery, onion, red cabbage and cooked chicken and stir-fry for 30 seconds, until peas are defrosted and chicken is heated through.
  • Add the dressing to the wok and stir to coat. Scatter over cilantro before serving (if using).
  • TIP: You can prepare the chow mein ahead of time. Enjoy it reheated in the microwave or it's just as delicious served cold.
