Ingredients
  

5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup soy sauce

3 tablespoons oyster sauce

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 medium onion, sliced

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

2 cups shredded cabbage

1 cup bean sprouts

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), sliced thinly

1 cup carrots, julienned

2 green onions, sliced for garnish

8 oz chow mein noodles or egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Toasted sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Add the bite-sized chicken pieces to the bowl, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated in the marinade. Cover and let marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes for optimal flavor infusion.

    Prepare the Slow Cooker: Transfer the marinated chicken to the crockpot. Layer in the sliced onion, minced garlic, shredded cabbage, colorful bell pepper, and julienned carrots, creating a vibrant medley.

      Add Additional Liquid: Drizzle any leftover marinade over the contents of the crockpot. If needed, add a few tablespoons of water to ensure there's enough moisture for cooking.

        Cook to Perfection: Secure the lid on the crockpot and set it to cook on a low setting for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is beautifully tender and fully cooked through.

          Incorporate Last Minute Ingredients: About 30 minutes prior to serving, gently fold in the bean sprouts and pre-cooked chow mein noodles. Allow to cook until everything is thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust the seasoning with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper as desired.

            Garnish and Serve: Once combined and heated through, transfer your delicious Chow Mein Chicken Sensation to a serving platter. Garnish with a generous sprinkle of sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds for an added crunch.
