Directions
Chinese Take-Out Chicken Chow Mein With Crispy Noodles, Most historians agree that noodles have been consumed in China for over two thousand years. This dish probably came over in the mid 1800’s with workers headed for the railroads and has about a thousand variations. One thing most foodies agree on is that the crispy noodles in the can are a big no-no. We are fans of frying these soft noodles until they are crispy on the outside but soft on the inside.
