I have not tried a Chinese website. I thought that people who cooked for their family would have a more authentic recipe. In general I have tried recipes online for other ethnic foods and they are usually quite different and generally, not as good. In my country that would give my country's version of what they thing it would be.

  I am the one who wrote the original post. 

I am looking for a recipe that has not been Americanized. I have looked on a search engine but they do not appear to be authentic. I could look on a Chinese website, but I can only read English.  I thought someone on here might know.

You should try by using free online translator ...

To get really, really authentic chow mein, you should raised yer own chicken, IMO, from authenticated Chinese egg, i.e. famous 'Chicken-Egg-Kitchen' Theory enlightened

 

... I use to aks my students: "Did you know, word 'chicken' and word 'kitchen' have the same letters?"

 

Then, I watch fingers in the classroom start moving, i.e. sorting through the letters ...

It was a foreplay for the 'Hang-man', ... but that's between us ... enlightened ... E.T.s ...  ... living on the planet Earth ...   

 

 

 

However, it must be done orally. If you'll write it on the blackboard, they'll see it in a second ... 

 

I can hear you interpreting @Sorrel ...

Moon is in the 'Waxing Crescent" and-o "... You-Aren't-Aware-What's-Coming ..." Phase .

Caution advized ...! 

 

... with that much waxo ...  ... and-o harper-sharper razor blader ... ... in hand.

 

...mhh, repeat that ... harper-sharper-razor-blader ...

GOOD!

I do not think that would work. I have heard that American chickens were taken to China and they continued to breed there and now, China has American chicken that lives in China. The same goes for pigs and pork. 
  I will be happy with American chicken still living in America

... see Stephen Meyer on 'who was taken from where ...'. You'll see, maybe verb 'brought' would suit better ...

 

I can't get a handle at this one.

Honestly, I have the same feeling at British&All with football ... They call the game foot-ball ... and then they carry the ball in hands for the .. whole day ...

Tuff nutter to crack ... English Grammar considering, of course ...

... on more serious note, I was contemplating, it might work with turkey ... 'cause we can pinpoint country of the specie's origin ...  

 

Turkey can't be from Lebanon, you see what I mean ...

 

... ... reading this next day, I'm like "What's wrong with this guy?"

 

.

I'm readying when Q "Where are you from?" will pop up .

Didn't I tell you ... or what? angel

 

https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/beef-chow-mein/

 

I'd say, you'll have to up the dishes' sizes ....surprise ... like cooking in an old-mini-bus sized dish  

 

 

I've always had a strong suspicion, turkey could be a viable solution ...broken heart...   ...

A: Yeah, I'm on the Chinese side, too. ... maybe just because you can see
A:Yeah, I'm on the Chinese side, too. ... maybe just because you can see titles against China so often.It was amazing (LOL) to see how Chinese respect traffic rules and all ... seeing it live from around 2010 on ... Now, cops hand regulating the traffic in the main crossings, that is something else ... Picture this: "All females, 165 - 175 cm tall, skinny, dressed in all leather, black outfit. ... Dalian, 2010, outside temp. -25*C ... short-hair w/ beret, wind&all proof leather jacket&trousers, military style black boots", two at the time ... like at doubles in tennis ... except colder...LOL..When I inquire about 'all movie-star seating in traffic crossings', Chinese told me, that it is a gov. job and only the best shape counts ...
I was only walking around China, but in Liaoning, I was imagining I would be driving ..., i.e. who to watch: traffic or woman ...I would say, they must have a tonne of skirmishes and accidents, but they don't ... everything is c&d with woman dressed in black leather in the middle.I'm telling you, Chinese are different ...O.K., one more: plowing the snow, cleaning up the roads at snow fall ... Chinese carry the snow away ... it's not like at us, when they push the snow to the banks 'nd voila ... Chinese plow snow with the digger and brazzilion trucks, waiting for the snow load in a beautiful line, queue line, that's it. Truck approaches the digger, gets load of snow and drove it away to some predestine place. Many different actors, but in China it is very organized.... digger, and some 50 trucks approaching the digger for some 2' stop ... conveyer belt thingy. It's a beautiful site to see it at large, ... from distance. -- icnif77
