    As much as I love takeout, I prefer to make Chicken Lo Mein at home because I love being able to add exactly what I want plus it has better flavor and less oil.

    This chicken lo mein recipe is surprisingly easy to make at home, and it actually tastes a lot better than what you can get at most takeout restaurants.

    It looks so good I can’t wait to try it. I am handicapped so I can’t make it to the grocery store by myself. But as soon as I can get there, I will be getting the ingredients to try this!
