For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of rice vinegar or a dash of white pepper to the sauce. If you prefer a richer flavor, use dark sesame oil instead of regular sesame oil. This dish is best served immediately. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently before serving. Protein Power: Elevate your chow mein into a complete meal by adding grilled chicken, shrimp, tofu, or sliced steak.
