Method
- Bring a large pot of water to boil and cook lo mein noodles according to package directions, about 4-5 minutes for dried noodles. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking, then toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.
- While noodles cook, prep your vegetables. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add minced garlic and white parts of green onions, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant. Don't let the garlic brown or it'll turn bitter.
- Add bell peppers, broccoli, snap peas, and carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp and bright colored.
- Add bean sprouts and ginger, cooking another 1-2 minutes. The sprouts should still have some crunch.
- Add cooked noodles to the pan and gently toss. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil, then pour over everything.
- Toss everything together for 2-3 minutes until noodles are heated through and well-coated. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot garnished with green onion tops and sesame seeds.
Notes
Cook noodles until just tender to prevent mushiness. Keep vegetables tender-crisp for best texture. Can be customized with your favorite proteins like chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
