• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the chow mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain the noodles and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and calamari rings and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.

Step 3

In the same wok, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the julienned carrot, sliced red bell pepper, and snow peas to the wok. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are just tender.

Step 5

Return the cooked shrimp and calamari to the wok, and add the cooked chow mein noodles. Toss everything to combine.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Pour this sauce over the noodle mixture in the wok.

Step 7

Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the noodles and stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated and heated through.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with the sliced green onions before serving hot.
