Chicken Lo Mein from Jo Cooks Reviewed
If you love Asian food, then learning how to make lo mein is a must. The broad idea of how to make it is pretty easy: boiled noodles, stir fried veggies, and a tasty sauce to top everything off. Actually, I just read that one of the main differences between chow mein and lo mein is that the latter is sauce focused.

Plus, the spice wasn’t even cooked with the meal, so added a kind of dry, powdery texture to everything which I wasn’t really hot on.
