~instructions: 

1. Prepare the chicken by thinly slicing the breast and place in a mixing bowl. 
2. Add the marinade ingredients to the chicken and mix until combined. Set aside. 
3. Prepare the vegetables by julienning the carrot, and thinly slicing the onion and cabbage. Chop the green onion into 2 inch pieces and mince the garlic. 
4. In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients listed above, and set aside. 
5. Heat up a wok on high heat, and add 1 tbsp of cooking oil. 
6. Once the wok starts smoking, add in the chicken. Spread out the chicken into an even layer. 
7. Sear the chicken for 1-2 minutes, until browned on side. Then, flip and sear the other side for another 1-2 minutes. Drizzle in some more oil around the edges if needed.
8. Continue stir-frying the chicken until cooked. Remove and set aside. 
9. In the same wok, add a bit more oil if needed. Once hot, add in the garlic and toast for 30 seconds. 
10. Add in the carrots, onions, cabbage, and white parts of the green onions. 
11. Stir-fry for a minute, then add a splash of shaoxing wine. Continue stir-frying until the veggies are soft. 
12. Turn the heat down to low, and add in the lo mein noodles, followed by the sauce. 
13. Toss to combine until the noodles are coated in the sauce. 
14. Add in the chicken and green parts of the green onion, and mix into the noodles. 
15. If the noodles are getting dry, add about another 1/4 cup of chicken stock and drizzle of oil and mix into the noodles. Turn off the heat.
