Ingredients

Marinade:

2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half, thinly sliced

Seasonings:

½ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon white sugar
¼ cup canola oil, divided
1 pound chow mein noodles
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced on the diagonal
1 carrot, cut into matchstick-size pieces
¼ cup bean sprouts
¼ cup thinly sliced onion
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Directions

Whisk water, 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, and black pepper together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Add chicken and marinate, about 15 minutes.
Stir chicken broth, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, oyster sauce, 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar, and sugar together in a bowl until seasoning mixture is well combined.
Heat 3 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir noodles until golden brown and crisp, about 1 minute. Transfer noodles to a platter.
Pour the remaining 1 tablespoon into skillet with the oil; cook and stir chicken over high heat until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Add seasoning mixture, celery, carrot, bean sprouts, onion, and green onion; cook and stir until sauce thickens, about 30 seconds. Pour chicken mixture over noodles.

Cook's Note:

You can use pancit noodles or Cantonese noodles for the chow mein.
