Serves/Makes: 6
Ready in: 2-5 hrs

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1-inch pieces
  • 4 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 4 green onions, white and green parts sliced
  • 3 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/3 cup light soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 4 ounces sliced water chestnuts
  • 8 ounces bean sprouts
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup water

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until browned. Transfer the chicken to the crock pot with a slotted spoon.

Add the carrots, green onions, celery, broth, sugar, soy sauce, crushed red pepper, ginger, garlic, and water chestnuts to the crock pot and stir gently. Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4 hours or until the chicken is cooked through. Stir in the bean sprouts during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Turn the crock pot to high heat. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the liquid. Cover the crock pot and cook for 15-30 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.

Serve the chicken chow mein over rice or noodles.
