Hello! Yes you can use hoisin sauce but take note that it’s sweeter and less salty and it has a more distinct flavor. It’s also thickier so it might affect the texture a bit. Let us know how it goes!

In response to Theresa and high sodium. I used homemade stock with no salt and my chow mein got the blessings of the entire family! It was almost perfect. Next time I probably won’t use so many noodles. Delicious all the same following recipe provided! It’s a keeper 🙂

Hi Teresa! I’m glad you enjoy the recipes! You can use low sodium alternatives as needed if they are available or adjust the saltiness to your preference.

Excellent and easy!! I did add some marinade to the chicken as well some cornstarch. Added garlic and yellow onion to the veggies. Tasted as good as a restaurant!

My family is very picky, but we all loved this. I used chicken, carrots, cabbage, broccoli and green onions. Making it today again to celebrate the Chinese New Year! I will add water chestnuts if I can find some.

That’s so great! It sounds like you have a new favorite, Gillian!

I love how you started your review. It made me smile big.

Oh dear heavenly plate of goodness… I’m in Scotland in the UK 🇬🇧 and takeaways here are amazing but not for the health conscious… this blew any chowmein iv ever had clean out the water… it was outstanding…
