Noodles in low-sodium chicken broth

1. Boil water with salt, add chowmein, (put green beans first, then fish them out if you are using them). Drain the boiled chowmein in a strainer, pour cold water if necessary. 
2.  Add peanut oil in a wok, add diced onions, serrano chilies, parboiled beans, celery and leeks. Put a handful of cashews or peanuts if you want an added crunch.
3. Now add low-sodium chicken broth, a squirt of lime (or 1 tsp white vinegar) and drizzle some low-sodium soy sauce. Now add the noodles and mix well.
4. Add a soft boiled or hard-boiled egg. You might scramble the egg too. Top with crushed pepper and serve warm
