Chicken Lo Mein

Chicken Lo Mein

When you are craving chinese food but don't want to spend the money to go out for it, or you want a healthier alternative this recipe is awesome. It's simple easy and tastes great! Here is the recipe from Kraft Foods.com but at the bottom I will add the changes that I have made to it.

Prep Time:10 min

Total Time:25 min

Makes:4 servings, 2 cups each

What You Need
1/2 lb. spaghetti, uncooked

1/4 cup KRAFT Asian Toasted Sesame Dressing

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pkg. (16 oz.) frozen bell pepper and onion strips, thawed, drained

1/2 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth

1 Tbsp. peanut butter

1/4 cup lite soy sauce

2 Tbsp. chopped cilantro

2 Tbsp. chopped PLANTERS COCKTAIL Peanuts

Make It
COOK spaghetti in large saucepan as directed on package.

MEANWHILE, heat dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken and garlic; stir-fry 3 min. or until chicken is no longer pink. Add peppers, onions, broth and peanut butter; stir-fry an additional 3 to 4 min. or until chicken is cooked through.

DRAIN spaghetti; return to pan. Add chicken mixture and soy sauce; mix well. Spoon onto serving platter; sprinkle with cilantro and peanuts.

When I make this I usually use 1/3 cup of the dressing for a bit more flavor. I also use fresh peppers and onions instead of frozen because they don't get as mushy. I also omit the cilantro, and peanuts and instead I add a bit of ginger to it while it is cooking. I have also marinated the chicken in the dressing before cooking it to add alittle boost of flavor. This dish is great fresh...but I love the leftovers!
