I was surprised at how easy and delicious this recipe for chow mein is. The girls gobble it right up!

2 cups cubed chicken
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 cup chicken bouillon (1 cube in 1 cup boiling water), you can also use broth
1 cup chopped onion
2 cups chopped celery
1 can bean sprouts--drained & rinsed
1 Tbsp. cornstarch

1 Tbsp. molasses
1/4 cup water

Brown chicken in shortening or cooking oil. Add soy sauce, bouillon and a sprinkle of salt. Cover & cook until chicken is tender. Add onions, celery & bean sprouts. Cook 10 minutes. In a small pan over low to med-low heat, blend cornstarch, ginger, molasses & water. Stir until thickened.

Serve over chow mein noodles and a bed of rice.
