Ramen and yakisoba noodles, without the seasoning packets, are a good substitute for these noodles. Fresh chow mein noodles - yakisoba or dry thin spaghetti are great subsitutes. Vegetables - celery, cabbage, matchstick carrots, garlic, green onions, ginger. Seasonings - low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar. Chicken breasts - chicken thighs will work great too, just a cook a few minutes longer.
