If you’re craving the delightful flavors of Chinese cuisine right at your table, nothing beats a perfectly cooked Chicken Chowmein. This iconic dish combines tender chicken, perfectly stir-fried noodles, and a secret sauce that gives it the rich, savory taste you often find in restaurants. At Amritsr Restaurant Dubai, we take pride in bringing this authentic experience to your plate, but you can also try making it at home with our simple guide.

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the perfect Chicken Chowmein, you’ll need fresh ingredients that elevate the taste:

For the chicken and noodles:

  • 250g boneless chicken, thinly sliced
  • 200g egg noodles or chowmein noodles
  • 1 small carrot, julienned
  • ½ bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2-3 spring onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

For the secret sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili sauce (optional, for a spicy kick)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • 50ml chicken stock or water

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

  1. Prepare the noodles:
    Boil the noodles in salted water for 3–4 minutes until soft but still firm. Drain and toss lightly with a teaspoon of oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Cook the chicken:
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken and stir-fry until cooked through and slightly golden, about 5–6 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  3. Stir-fry the vegetables:
    In the same wok, add another tablespoon of oil. Toss in garlic and ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until aromatic. Add carrots, bell pepper, and half of the spring onions. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Prepare the secret sauce:
    Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, chili sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, sugar, and chicken stock in a small bowl. This sauce is the heart of the dish—it balances sweet, savory, and tangy flavors to give your chowmein that restaurant-style taste.
  5. Combine everything:
    Return the cooked chicken to the wok, pour in the secret sauce, and toss well. Add the cooked noodles and stir-fry for another 2–3 minutes, ensuring the sauce evenly coats the noodles and chicken.
  6. Garnish and serve:
    Sprinkle the remaining spring onions over the chowmein. Serve hot for the best taste. Pair it with a side of spring rolls or fried dumplings for a complete restaurant-style experience.

Tips for Perfect Chicken Chowmein

  • Use high heat: Stir-frying at high heat ensures a smoky flavor, which is often the secret behind restaurant-style chowmein.
  • Prep ingredients first: Everything cooks quickly in a wok, so have your chicken, vegetables, and sauce ready beforehand.
  • Noodles matter: Egg noodles or chowmein noodles give a soft but slightly chewy texture that complements the sauce beautifully.
  • Adjust the sauce: Taste and tweak the secret sauce to suit your palate. Add more chili if you like it spicy or a bit of sugar for a hint of sweetness.
