This is the recipe that i've been looking for. All of the recipes that i've seen before has soft noodles in it. This is truly take out style. Thank you for this!!!
Me too !!!!
@@philipnicholson3216 needs some maggi season sauce and dry sherry, garlic and ginger soy sauce for flavor
Me three! The others look like lo mien ... not chow mien... this looks delicious 😋
@@wheelie642 Exactly!
Same hereee
Edit: oof, that was five years ago
East coat take out chowmein is litteraly to die for, ive never been able to recreate it exactly, its so hard
Use this recipe,But add some bean sprouts And thinly sliced Napa cabbage too It.I am from the east coast. Brooklyn New York to be exact, and Trying to get chow mein like that anywhere else is really hard!
Add bok choy or napa cabbage. Also a slurry of cornstarch and water will thicken the sauce. The sauce is basically the vegetable water and the cabbage helps out with that.
This is my wife's favorite take out dish! We moved a couple towns away and both the Chinese restaurants here only make the more traditional chow mein, basically lo mein with soft fried noodles. Will definitely give this a try.
Brooklyn restaurants back when made like that, thank you, now my turn to prepare!
This is my favorite way to have chow mein! my new englander grandma would make it this way with bean sprout and chow mein noodles on top
Thanks this was the first Chinese food I ate as a child. Just the recipe I remember eating. Thanks for posting. 😊😊😊
Oh I made it tonight. Best thing ever. My hubby loved it. Posted a picture on FB, told them the recipe was from The Wolfe Pit on You Tube. 😋😋😋 Thanks 😊❤😊
Yes, this is the east coast (or NY style) that I know of and like. I also think bean sprouts can be added for a veggie triad of celery-onion-bean sprouts. Great insight on the noodles (new insight to me). In restaurants, slicing of celery (short strips) sometimes differs, too. Thanks!
Thank you! My tastebuds prefer the Napa Cabbage and bean sprouts in place of the celery and onions. I can't wait to try it!
bella christina Thank you so much Bella! I really appreciate that!! Hope you enjoy!!
Larry
Thank you sooooooooooo much for this amazing recipe❣️
It was my Dear Momma’s favorite.
This is the Chow Mein I remember as a child. Thanks for sharing!
WOW!!!! This looks most excellent Larry. We will try this soon. Right into my CULINARY playlist. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!
Thank you Fred! I really appreciate it!
going to give it a try today. Looks so good. Thanks.
Some chinese takeouts add bok choy and bean sprouts,makes it even better.
Was happy to see you were the one who had this recipe for the chow mein I was going for
I remember this from my youth growing up in NJ. I married a California girl and moved out west. What an adjustment! They call this chop suey out west. Also spicy is the name of the game. Still, for fun I tried this recipe. Thanks to my wife, I had everything I needed right in the cupboard! It was exactly as I remembered Chicken "CHOW MAIN." Out west, ya better call it " "CHOW MIN" unless you want to be laughed at. Anyway, it's just a little bland without at least some chili oil/sauce added in. Also you forgot the MSG. It's the magic ingredient in all Americanized Chinese food. I buy it by the pound! Anyway Wolfie, you took me back to my childhood and that was great fun.
Love this stuff 💖
My favorite! I live right across the street from really great Chinese take out and once every two weeks or so, I treat myself to chicken chow mein and a spring roll.
Now you can make it yourself
I've used your Lo Mein recipe, and the family loves it! I'll be trying this one next! Thanks again, Larry!
Thank you very much Markus! Glad you enjoyed it! Let me know how you like this!
Wow.... so this looks SO DELICIOUS and now I'm starving for sure! I was looking for the 'green and white' of more authentic chicken chow mein or perhaps more in the style I was once used to eating; and this one matches it! I am eager to try this one out. Thanks bunches for your demo and recipe.
I love cooking Chinese food at home! Thanks for sharing another great video!
Thank you Michelle! Hope you give it a try!
Larry
So simple gnna try it with me luck.😊thankyou !
This tastes exactly like what I used to get at my favorite Chinese restaurant that closed. Great job and thanks so much for sharing...
Thank you very much glad you tried it and enjoyed it!! Still one of my favorites!!
No wonder it closed
I remember eating chow mein like that as a kid. It always had roasted peanuts in it. Thanks for the recipe.
this is completely different from the kind i'm used to and it looks awesome! cannot wait to try it. thanks!
Thanks Graham! *YES* it is very different than West Coast and traditional chow mein as they have noodles cooked in it. Let me know what you think!
Great take on a chicken chow mein Larry. Love the crunch factor! Thank you :)
Thank you Marie! The crunch is what makes this!!!
Thank you for sharing this recipe. This is exactly how I like my chicken chow mein.
Larry this is the classic chicken Chow Main we grew up on, with a big twist you got your velvet chicken down pretty good. Looks very appetizing, but for me, I like the fresh noodles. all in all, still a good recipe.
Glen, that is the funny thing...until a couple years ago I never new chow mein had noodles in it!! LOL But like you said, this is what I grew up on and remember eating all of my life....I still get it at the local Chinese establishment and they make it the same way!!! LOL Thanks for watching!!
That looks wonderful and I love the crispy noodles!
Thank you Beebs!!
What classic dish!! I would be chowing big time on this dish!!
Good job on the velvet chicken. Looks good Larry!
Looks good Larry! I've never seen anyone cut up the wrappers and fry them like that. I always learn something new over here!
Thanks Jim!
The family loved it. Better than the Chinese restaurant. Thanks again!
Thank you very much J!
thanks so much for this!!! looks just like the stuff my mom made growing up...shopping for the stuff now to make it :)
Thank you Kellie! Hope you enjoy!
I'd like to give that a try! Looks good Wolfe! :) Have a great weekend!
Thank you Kelly! It's so simply and filling! The key is to add just a couple drops of soy sauce once it's plated....that makes this dish!
made this weekend everyone loved it,as you said everyone makes it different,but this is the one iam use to.thanks again!
Thank you very much Patrick! Really glad you made it and enjoyed it! Until a couple of years ago, I never knew there were different types of chow mein or even that it has noodles in it!! This style is how I've eaten it all of my life!! Thanks again! Larry
omg that looks so delish
Thus looks awesome! It's a lot different than stuff I see on the west coast. I will have to make this!!!
Thank you Teresa! *YES* it is very different than West Coast and traditional chow mein as they have noodles cooked in it. Please let me know how you like it!!
Larry
Larry, what really appeals to me is how nicely you marinated the chicken. The sauce seemed to thicken up just right too. Your chow Mein is fit for the Chinese emperor!
Thank you John! The marinade is literally where all of the flavor in this dish comes from and though it doesn't 'smack you in the mouth' with flavor, it's a very appealing and filling meal. This version of chicken chow mein is unlike most versions, that have either boiled or fried noodles cooked in with it. This is how it's made here on the East Coast! It's fairly low carb too minus the rice!
@DawgYankee who do you think invented this stuff?? Chinese people who came to America! he never said it was a traditional dish.
Looks so good
Very well presented..
Looks so delicious Larry great job as always. I neva new there were noodles n chicken chow mein! Send me sum :-)! TFS
Until a few years ago, I didn't know there were real noodles in chow mein either. But this version with the faux noodles is still pretty tasty! Come on over Vanessa, I'll save you a plate!
I'll give this a try, and just leave out the fried noodles. Looks fantastic. Thanks, Larry.
Phil, spray with a little cooking spray and bake them at 350 until golden brown! Thanks buddy!
My dad makes turkey chow mien after a couple turkey sandwiches after thanksgiving. We put it on a plate or bowl and added those store bought chinese noodles in a can thats dried. Man what a filling meal.
Great idea for leftover turkey!!
one of my favorites!!!!!
This is my dads favorite!!! Thanks so much
Looks real good thanks for sharing
+karpetech Thanks for watching!
Bravo! Except for the "crispy" wontons, this is 90% the taste/texture of my favorite Chinese restaurant (run by a nice family from Malaysia) that closed down 5 years ago. I am extremely pleased with the results. I believe in independent living and now I can make my favorite (Americanized) Chinese recipe myself! Bravo!
It looks GOOD ♡.♡
Looks awesome Larry!
Thank you Tom!
Awesome the real deal
Looks so yummy!
Thank you!
The style we have here in Nova Scotia has bean sprouts in place of the soft noodles
"The more the better..." Hollaback brother! More is always better! I really enioyed the video. Now I know that making Chinese food at home is simple :)
Thank you Kurt!! Definitely more noodles, more crunch mo bettah!!!! Hope you give this a try buddy!
Larry
Perfect! That looks as good as it gets, Larry! I was just eyeballing the wok today, thinking it's been too long since I've had it out. And I have some eggroll wraps I really should use up. Hmmm.....
This is as easy as it gets John! So get er done!
Forget take out, this is where it's at? Lookin good!
Thank you Lisa!
Thanks Bro!!! Gonna try this on my day off! ;)
Thanks Ed! Let me know how you like it!
Larry
I can't click the link to see the recipe. I cannot find the recipe on the wolfe pit either.
Great looking dish, Larry!
~Sam
Thank you Sam!
Any time I eat Chinese food, It's either General Tso's chicken or this. Killer job as always Larry
Thanks Russ! I was a little scared about this video as this chow mein is much different than traditional chow mein and some people have never seen this version. But this is how I've had it from restaurants here on the East coast all of my life!!
This is exactly how we get it here as well. It's awesome. You did damn good.
That a a keeper Larry..I'll have to make me some...
Thanks Manuel! This is one of my favorites and super easy!
Moving from New England around the US, you learn really fast that American Chinese food in the majority of the USA is GROSS. So glad I found this recipe! Finally someone who does it right ;)
I live in Long Island I grew up eating chow mein this way only thing missing is cabbage thanks for the recipe.
That's my hubby's favorite! But for me hear me out larry put the chow mien on a toasted bun with ducks sauce and a drop of hot mustard I love love it
Yes Tracey, chow mein sandwiches rule!! My father used to make them and we loved them! My intention was to do another video with a chow mein sandwich, but there wasn't any left!! LOL! Thank you very much and I'm glad someone else has heard of a chow mein sammich!! LOL
Lol you never let me down! Hubby can't laugh at my sammich!
Great video Larry! All of these Chinese recipes you have Larry I will never have to eat bad Chinese again, thanks! #amazingchinese #deliciousness
Thank you Robert! Hope you enjoy them!!
Awesome recipe
Thank you Jimmy!
Looks delicious....
Thanks you Bird Bird!
I feel right at home :)
yeah me too!
LOL! Thanks brother!
JP Lambiase Who is this masked man?
I have made this numerous times and it's delicious. Better than take out, but mine always browns too much so I end up with a brown sauce and not a light sauce. It's cooked over a medium high heat so I don't know what I am doing wrong. Am I perhaps cooking the chicken too long? Thanks!
The only thing my parents would order from the Chinese Restaurant when I was little....memories 😊
This, egg foo young and shrimp with lobster sauce were basically what we always had!! LOL Thanks for watching Jazzy!
I've had your version when I was visiting the east coast a few years back. I prefer it over ours on the West Coast, because the noodles soak up all the juice. Gets a bit dry. Nice job on this one, Brother. BTW, I'll PM you tomorrow.
Thank you Carlos, I'm glad you have tried this version! I've learned that Chinese food doesn't only vary in the regions in Asia, but also in the U.S. and it varies WIDELY!!! I think people on the West Coast saw this video and were like WHAT IS THAT? LOL!!! Thank you as always my friend!!
Larry
I'm trying this soon.
Please let me know how you like it Kendall! Thank your for watching!
Larry
I love allthat food
YUM!!!!
Thank you Linda!
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaow , it really is .
Thanks
Thank you very much Elham!
wow looks delicious and easy. I will be trying this recipe soon. But just one question...How many servings or people does the recipe you are using serve?
This is equivalent to a 'large' or 'quart size' order from a Chinese Restaurant. I normally eat this amount myself, but it depends on the people you're feeding. Thanks for watching!
Lol yes i myself can eat a quart by myself. Knowing this, i now know exactly how much to make. It's whats for dinner tonight. :-) Thank you much!
super..
Thank you!
East coast style? where is that Chinese province?
Mott Street NYC
NJ
Is rice wine vinegar the same as rice wine? I couldn't find just rice wine?
+Couponing4Life No, they're not the same. If you can't find rice wine, the next best thing is dry sherry (not cooking sherry which is full of salt) or dry white wine.
Otherwise excellent job I add bok choy and smidgen of cabbage and carrot juliene then salted peanuts as garnish. This is how they serve it in Chinatown NYC
Can you use any basic vegetables like carrot onion beansprouts
Troy Hughes Yep!
Thats looks just like the takeout I get all the time..Yum!! I think they put cabbage in too
+Couponing4Life Yep I have seen cabbage in it as well!! This is one of my favorite American Chinese dishes! Thanks for watching!
I added it to mine close to the end. Delicious!
There's no bean sprouts or bok choy or bamboo shoots or water chestnuts in your recipe. I live on the East Coast and chicken chow mein has celery, onions, bok choy, sprouts, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots where I come from. I grew up eating chicken chow mein. It's my favorite chinese dish.
richmond8334 then add it?
Mmmmmm... looks mighty tasty. I'll have mine with beef.
Definitely Mark! Beef, pork, chicken, shrimp or house combination!! LOL Thank you for watching!
Looks good...is there a particular reason why cooks cut the celery the way that you did? Presentation?
It makes bigger, thinner and more tender pieces. It also cooks faster and definitely makes for a nicer presentation.
marinade is the sauce, marinate is the verb :)
Love this all other recipes have sesame oil in it and it's too over bearing
I bought sesame oil for the first time, man is it ever strong. Small doses for sure if used.
Nice
Thank you Dan! You are an Asian Culinary expert.....have you ever had this version of chow mein?
Never I gotta try it
I thought chow mien was with crispy noodles and lo mien was with soft noodles.
I thought this was chop suey.
That's how we do it on the East Coast, USA. In UK, they add cooked egg noodles to chow mein--ugh! This recipe is what I was looking for.
@@margaritawalker4 I noticed difference chinese spots call it chop suey or chow mien
Forget frying noodles La Choy makes chow mein noodles in a bag they're thin and crispy and tasty a hell a lot better than fried wonton strips
It is surprising you don't use aromatics in oil in the pan before adding chicken. We add garlic and ginger, which broadens the flavor profile. But, there are ao many ways to make chow mean, some add sesame oil, oyster sauce, rice wine, etc.
The more leftovers the better!!! LOL Thank you!
Thank You for posting.... I'm also from the east coast and I miss good chinese food... TX Chinese take out knows nothing about Chinese Food......
Thank you Jae! Hope you give this a try!
Larry
I live in the EC and I hate that this is how they make Chow mein
The lifeof Jonnelleoh TV TELL ME ABOUT IT!
easy!.
+maria espinoza Thank you Maria! Please let me know how you like it.
Larry
I can't find the recipe ...
+ConKap2 Sorry about that, I forgot to add it. Here you go - wolfepit.blogspot.com/2014/09/chicken-chow-mein.html
Salt?
I didn't add any salt, the soy sauce and chicken broth was sufficient for my taste. If you prefer more salt, go ahead and add a little to your liking!
Where's Uncle Roger when we REALLY need him?!
