Beef Chow Mein Recipe | Easy Chinese-Style Beef Noodles with Vegetables

Beef Chow Mein is a flavorful noodle stir-fry made with tender strips of beef, chewy noodles, crisp vegetables, and a savory homemade sauce. This popular Chinese-style dish combines garlic, ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil to create a rich and aromatic coating for every noodle. Quick to prepare in a hot wok, Beef Chow Mein is perfect for busy weeknight lunches or dinners. Serve it hot on its own or alongside other Asian-inspired dishes for a satisfying homemade meal.

Cooking Method

Cook the chow mein noodles according to the package directions until just tender. Drain, rinse briefly with cold water, and toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, water, and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat.
Add the sliced beef and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes, until browned and nearly cooked through. Transfer the beef to a plate.
Add the remaining oil to the wok. Stir-fry the onion, carrot, and bell pepper for 2–3 minutes.
Add the cabbage, bean sprouts, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes, keeping the vegetables slightly crisp.
Return the beef to the wok and add the cooked noodles.
Pour the prepared sauce around the hot edge of the wok and toss everything together over high heat for 2–3 minutes, until the noodles are evenly coated and heated through.
Add the sliced green onions and optional chili flakes. Toss for another 30 seconds.
Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately.
