Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Gluten-free chow mein noodles
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 1 medium Bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Snow peas, trimmed
- 1 cup Green cabbage, shredded
- 3 Scallions, sliced
- 3 tbsp Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 tbsp Oyster sauce (gluten-free, optional for additional flavor)
- 1 tsp Dark sesame oil (for finishing)

Instructions
Cook the gluten-free chow mein noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrots, bell pepper slices, snow peas, and shredded cabbage to the pan. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Push the vegetables to the side of the pan. Add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil to the center of the pan and add the cooked noodles.
Drizzle the tamari and (optional) gluten-free oyster sauce over the noodles. Toss everything together gently to combine the vegetables and noodles.
Sprinkle in salt and black pepper, and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Remove the skillet from heat. Drizzle the dark sesame oil over the finished dish for a burst of nutty flavor and garnish with sliced scallions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free vegetable chow mein!
