AUTHENTIC CHINESE PORK CHOW MEIN



Authentic Chinese Pork Chow Mein image

No need to order in chow mein when you can make it yourself, this is just as good if not even better than any Chinese restaurant or take-out -- if you prefer more flavor then add in more soy sauce --- if desired after the pork is finished browning you may add in fresh minced garlic and stir for 2 minutes, this is only optional --- you will love this!

PORK CHOW MEIN STUFFED GREEN PEPPERS



Pork chow mein stuffed green peppers image

NOTE: I used two chops that were BBQ-ed from last week, and put in the freezer. If you use already cooked pork you'll want to cut the cooking time to just long enough for all the onions and other vegetables to cook and the flavors to come together. Maybe 5 minutes. I think this would be great with chicken also.....
