Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauces, sesame oil, garlic, and cornstarch with chicken stock; mix well and set aside.
Soak the lo mein noodles in boiling water for about 15–20 seconds until al dente; strain immediately without rinsing.
Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add carrots, bell pepper, snow peas, mushrooms, and napa cabbage. Sprinkle with cold water and cook for 1–2 minutes until veggies soften.
Lower the heat to medium and add the cooked noodles along with the sauce mixture; toss everything together until well combined.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
