I have been wanting to experiment more with Asian Cuisine and ended up making this modified Chicken Lo Mein. I have had nothing but positive feedback on it and thought I should share.

Steps

1

Combine rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, mirin, broth, sesame oil, black pepper, ginger, and garlic in a large bowl to create the sauce marinade. Wisk together well.
2

Chop onions, zucchini and shiitake mushrooms and add to the sauce marinade.
3

Add the sliced chicken to the sauce marinade. Note: Letting this marinate in the fridge will enhance the flavor in the ingredients and not just the sauce.
4

Cook the Lo Mein noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
5

Add chicken, vegetables, and sauce to wok or skillet on high heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
6

Take a small bowl or glass and remove 1/4 cup of the heated sauce and add the cornstarch and mix thoroughly.
7

Add the cornstarch mixture and the Lo Mein to the wok with the simmering chicken and vegetable and the remainder of the sauce. Simmer for 3 minutes. Serve.
