Cooking Steps
• Bring a medium pot (large pot for 4 servings) of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. Zest and quarter lime.
• Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes, then drain.
• While noodles cook, open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid. • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium- high heat. Add chicken and broccoli; season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned and cooked through and broccoli is tender, 4-6 minutes. TIP: If your broccoli isn’t bright green after 2-3 minutes, cover the pan to help it cook! • Remove pan from heat. Add sweet soy glaze, chili sauce, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), and as many chili flakes as you like (we used 1⁄2 tsp; 1 tsp for 4); stir to combine.
• To pan with chicken and broccoli, add drained noodles, lime zest, and juice from half the lime; toss to coat. Taste and season with salt. • Divide chicken lo mein between shallow bowls. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
