Restaurant Style Beef Chow Mein Recipe

This is a quick and easy meal but make sure you have everything ready before beginning to cook. This is my basic recipe for stir-fry. I’ve tried others but always come back to this one. I have also substituted chicken and chicken broth for the beef and beef broth and found it just as good.
