Pork Lo Mein - Chinese Stir Fried Noodles

 Jonna Austin (Texas) says:
Do NOT use the 4 tbsp. oil in the sauce; you do not need it. Otherwise a flavorful dish. We had pan-fried noodles instead of the noodles suggested; next time I will try the noodles as the recipe is written. I used pork chops for the meat and it worked very well. Had it with szechuan green beans; it was a hit.
