SPICY CHICKEN CHOW MEIN

Spicy Chicken Chow Mein image

This was quite good, easy enough to make and didn't take very long before it was done. I used a pkg. coleslaw mixture with carrots and cooked longer than suggested as I like my cabbage on the wilted side (the carrots still had a slight crunch to them). I also used chicken tenders. All I had on hand was spaghetti and it worked quite nicely. I guess I liked it more than I thought as I had 2 big servings.
