CHEW THE RIGHT THING



BITE IT!

HG's So Low Mein w/Chicken



Lean & Mein

Everyone loves lo mein. How can you not? It's basically Asian "spaghetti"

packed with all kinds of deliciousness. But who on Earth wants to deal with

the horrendous calorie and fat counts of regular old lo mein? CRAZY PEOPLE,

that's who. Don't be crazy -- or LAZY. Head to the kitchen and whip up some

of HG's So Low Mein w/Chicken. BTW, this recipe also rocks with

soy "chicken" strips, lean beef, pork tenderloin, shrimp, and tofu. Wok on,

people!



Ingredients:

3 bags House Foods Tofu Shirataki, original spaghetti shape

One 10 - 16 oz. bag frozen Chinese-style stir-fry mixed veggies (with

broccoli, water chestnuts, etc.)

8 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast; cut into strips

1 cup bean sprouts

1/2 cup chopped mushrooms

1/2 cup thinly sliced zucchini

1/2 cup chopped scallions

1/4 cup shredded carrots

1/4 cup reduced sodium or light soy sauce

1 tbsp. cornstarch

2 tsp. chicken-flavored powdered consommé/bouillon (like the one by Osem,

which can be found with the kosher items at the supermarket)

2 no-calorie sweetener packets (like Splenda)



Directions:

Rinse and drain Tofu Shirataki noodles VERY well. Dry them thoroughly, and

run a knife or kitchen shears through 'em a few times (so noodles aren't as

long). Set aside. To make sauce, combine soy sauce, cornstarch,

consommé/bouillon, and sweetener with 1/2 cup of hot water. Stir well and

set aside. Bring a large pan or a wok sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-

high heat. Add chicken and all the veggies (the frozen and the fresh ones).

Stirring frequently, cook for 5 - 7 minutes (until chicken is cooked throughout

and frozen veggies are heated). Pour sauce into pan/wok, stir well, and

continue to cook until sauce has thickened. Lastly, add in the noodles, and

cook until entire dish is thoroughly mixed and heated. MAKES 4 SERVINGS

FIGHT IT!

Chicken Lo Mein, Average Restaurant



Lo Mein for Losers

Let's get one thing straight. There's nothing "low" about traditional lo mein.

The dish consists of Asian noodles (made from wheat flour), veggies, and

some type of meat item, and it's stir-fried. In oil. Lots and lots of it. Get an

order of Lo Mein Chicken for dinner at P.F. Chang's, and that freakish,

oversized plate of Chinese spaghetti will clock in at 1,610 calories and 66

grams of fat (POINTS® value 37*). AHHHHHHHHHH! And your typical

Chinese takeout place will likely serve up close to 1,200 calories and FIFTY

grams of fat in each large container of the stuff! So, as inviting, enticing, and

downright tempting as this noodley veggie & chicken packed stuff is, ordering

it from a restaurant is definitely not a good idea. Instead, stock up on some

Tofu Shirataki, and toss up a batch of HG's version. You'll FREAK when you

taste how fantastic it is.
