Chicken Lo Mein Stir Fry

Growing up in the Philippines and living in Taiwan for several years, I learned to love cooking and eating Lo Mein. This is really a fast and easy stir fry recipe. When my in-laws were here, i wasn't sure if they would like to try this dish since i haven't seen them eating it before. The response was really good - it was a relief for me.
