One Pot Wonder Chicken Lo Mein

This may be my favorite recipe of the year!  Not only because it's delicious, but of how simple it is.  It really is a one pot wonder!  I had never thought to cook pasta, chicken, and vegetables at the same time.  Genius!  The flavors are terrific- as good as takeout!  I hope you enjoy!


  • 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into small chunks
  • 12 oz whole wheat linguini or fettucine (broken in half)- I just used spaghetti noodles I had in the pantry
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into thin 3-inch strips
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into thin 3-inch strips
  • 1 bunch green onions, white part sliced and green part cut into 3-inch strips
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp corn starch
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
Add the chicken, then the pasta, then the remaining ingredients to a large stockpot and cover.  Bring to a biol.  Stir and reduce to a simmer.  Cook, covered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Cook until most of the liquid is gone and the chicken is cooked through.
