To store leftover Chicken Chow Mein, let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. It can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply stir-fry it in a pan over medium heat until heated through, adding a splash of water or soy sauce to prevent it from drying out.

Yes, you can use other types of noodles for Chicken Chow Mein. While egg noodles are traditional, you can substitute them with rice noodles, udon noodles, or even whole wheat noodles. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time according to the type of noodles you choose.

To keep the vegetables in your Chicken Chow Mein crunchy, make sure to stir-fry them over high heat for a short amount of time.
