This is pretty much like the shrimp lo mein you buy at an Asian takeout place. You can use chicken instead of shrimp, or even both for a delicious mix. To make it healthier, you can throw in some chopped veggies too.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 (8 ounce) package spaghetti

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • 1 ½ tablespoons white sugar

  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 ½ cups uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

  • 3 large cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup green onions, chopped

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water until cooked through yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain.

  2. Whisk chicken broth, sugar, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a bowl.

  3. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Cook and stir shrimp and garlic in hot oil until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add prepared sauce and chopped green onions to the shrimp mixture; cook until the sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss cooked spaghetti with the mixture to coat the noodles in sauce. Serve immediately.
