Soy Sauce Stir Fry Noodles

Soy sauce mein is a simple stir-fried noodle dish that uses pre-steamed egg noodles tossed in a savory, slightly sweet soy-based sauce. Inspired by Cantonese noodles, this dish is all about balance—chewy noodles, crisp vegetables, and an umami-rich sauce for chow mein that hits all the right notes. If you're unfamiliar, chow mein literally means "fried noodles" in Chinese. This version uses soy sauce as the main flavoring agent, along with aromatics and crunchy bean sprouts for a fast, flavorful meal.
