Mee refers to noodles, and goreng means stir-frying in both Malay and Indonesian language. 
This variant of fried noodles is entirely different from the Chinese noodles like Chow Mien. 

Potatoes, tofu, and cabbage are among some of the ingredients.

Mee Goreng – How to cook great noodles in 4 quick steps

Delish.com's Chicken Chow Mein will take less time than ordering take-out.

Chicken Chow Mein

refrigerated chow mein noodles or dry spaghetti

tbsp. sesame oil

lb. boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1" pieces

Kosher salt

black pepper

ginger

carrot, grated

cabbage,

chicken broth

c. low-sodium soy sauce

oyster sauce

green onions,

sesame seeds,

I don’t usually leave comments on recipes, but I like to go through them to see what others have done and tried and thought. So in the spirit of that - I thought I’d share my opinion because something happened that never usually happened. I made the recipe as suggested, but with substitutions from the poster.  I used beef instead of chicken (used extra stew beef I had and cut into little pieces. Marinated the beef as per the poster’s beef and broccoli recipe); I didn’t use cabbage but mushrooms and sweet peppers instead - everything else was done as per the recipe. My husband and I loved it! My husband generally likes me cooking, but he LOVED this. By the time I put our daughter to bed, he was sitting with a second bowl AND had packed a lunch. He NEVER packs lunch - he effectively called dibs on this dish. I’d made enough for 6 servings and all that’s left is enough for lunch for me tomorrow. I’ve tried many Asian dishes before and this is by far the most delicious! Thanks you for sharing and keep up the good work. I’ll be doing the beef and broccoli next!

Added extra ginger and garlic but still seemed kind of bland to me. I might try adding some onion the next time for more flavor and more veggies.

Husbands comment “restaurant quality”, and son asked for seconds. A keeper recipe.

Quick easy and tasty. Upped the ginger and added a little more garlic - was fantastic.

this did not take me to flavor town. Noods were not gangster. Edible though.

Very good!  Loved by the whole family.  Added bonus:  it was pretty quick and easy to make!

It's real easy to make everyone loved it thanks

Make the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, oyster sauce, curry powder, sesame oil, salt, and sugar. Set aside.

Heat up 1 tbsp oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium high heat. When hot, add lightly beaten salted eggs and scramble, pushing from the outside in, until mostly set, but still slightly runny. Remove and set aside. If needed, wipe down your wok/pan if there are any egg bits left inside.

Heat up another tbsp of oil and add the protein (shrimp, chicken breast, and/or pork). Cook, stir frying and tossing, for 1-2 minutes, or until cooked through.

Add the bell pepper, onion, and carrots and stir fry for 15-30 seconds. Add the last tbsp of oil and then add the drained noodles, eggs, and sauce.

Fry, using a scoop and lift motion to loosen the noodles and incorporate all of the ingredients evenly amongst the noodles. Continue to stir fry, tossing and mixing, until everything is hot and the noodles are evenly seasoned with the sauce mix. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
