Chicken Chow Mein Recipe!!

Friday finally!! Today was a long day at work for me. Tired and exhausted me had no energy to fix anything complicated. So, I decided to make Chicken Chow Mein/Lo Mein (i do not find any difference). Husband was ready to help in chopping vegetables needed for this dish and I was ready for a stir fry. Before, moving to the States, I didn't even know Chow Mein was a Chinese dish =)) I know right! I always thought it was a Nepali dish :) I think it was because we get it every where and is often prepared at households. Whatever, let's get to the point and start cooking!
