Equipment

Flat Bottom Wok

Ingredients

3 instant noodle cakes season packets removed

For the Sauce

2 Tbsp sweet soy sauce
2 tsp light soy sauce
2 tsp dark soy sauce
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
2 Tbsp ketchup
1 tsp sriracha
2 tsp sesame oil

For the Stir Fry

2 Tbsp olive oil
2 eggs whisked
3 garlic cloves minced
4 oz chicken breast cut into bite sized pieces
4 oz shrimp peeled and deveined
2 cups green cabbage finely sliced
3 green onions cut into two inch lengths

Instructions

In a bowl, mix the sauce ingredients together and set aside.
Prepare the noodles per their package instructions just before cooking.
In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Pour in your whisked eggs and swirl them to create a thin coat across the bottom. Cook for 1 minute, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
Next, move the cooked eggs onto a cutting board and fold them into a wrap. Slice into ½-inch thick pieces to create egg ribbons.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the same wok or skillet over high heat.
Add the garlic and chicken, cooking until the outside of the chicken turns white.
Next, add the shrimp and cook for about 1 minute until the chicken is mostly cooked.
Add the cabbage and toss for 1 minute until slightly wilted.
Then, add the noodles, green onions (saving some for garnish), and sauce. Toss for 1-2 minutes until the sauce reduces and the noodles slightly caramelize.
Add the egg ribbons and toss for 30 seconds until they are warmed through.
Garnish with more green onions, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

To store Mee Goreng, place it in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. While freezing is possible, it may alter the texture of the noodles; freeze in a tightly sealed container for up to 1 month.

To reheat, use a skillet over medium heat or microwave on medium power for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of water or broth to maintain moisture and prevent drying out during reheating.
