Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package dried lo mein noodles
4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, divided
1 pound lean ground turkey
1 cup diced onion
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium chicken broth
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and sliced
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 envelope onion soup mix
3 cups chopped celery, 1/4-inch pieces
1 cup sugar snap peas
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
1 (12 ounce) package fresh mung bean sprouts

Directions

1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil; cook noodles, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil.
2 Heat remaining sesame oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add turkey, onion, and garlic to the hot oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until ground turkey is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain excess grease and return to the pan.
3 Pour in chicken broth, water chestnuts, soy sauce, and onion soup mix. Stir until well combined. Add celery, snap peas, and bell pepper. Cook and stir until slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
4 Add noodles and bean sprouts to the pan. Stir to combine and serve immediately, topped with red pepper flakes.
