Beef Lo Mein with Vegetables is a quick, flavorful takeout-style dish made at home. Tender beef, colorful veggies, and lo mein noodles are tossed in a savory, slightly sweet sauce for a satisfying meal ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz lo mein noodles (or spaghetti)
  • 1 lb beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 cup snow peas (optional)
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil (for stir-frying)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium if preferred)
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil (for sauce)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
  2. Whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Heat sesame oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the beef until just browned, then remove from the pan.
  4. Add garlic, ginger, broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  5. Return the beef to the pan, add the noodles, and pour in the sauce. Toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through.
  6. Top with chopped green onions and serve hot.

Notes

  • Marinate the beef with soy sauce and cornstarch for extra tenderness.
  • Customize with any vegetables you have on hand.
  • For a spicy kick, add chili garlic sauce or sriracha to the sauce.
  • To make gluten-free, use tamari and rice noodles.
