Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, thinly sliced onion
- 2 stalks, sliced diagonally celery
- 2 cups, shredded cabbage
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon, grated ginger
- 2 stalks, sliced green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Use a spiralizer to create zoodles from the zucchinis. Set aside on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.
Step 2
Heat sesame oil and olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the sliced onion and celery to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Step 4
Add the shredded cabbage to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes, until the cabbage softens slightly.
Step 5
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and oyster sauce.
Step 6
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 7
Increase heat to high, then add the zoodles to the pan along with the soy sauce mixture. Toss everything together to ensure the zoodles are well-coated in the sauce.
Step 8
Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the zoodles are just tender but still have a bite.
Step 9
Season with black pepper and garnish with sliced green onions.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb chow mein!
