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.

... get me some jiao zi ...
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
... I use to aks my students:
"Did you know, words 'chicken' and '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 ... ... 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 exactly 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?

I'd say, you'll have to up the dishes' sizes ....
... like cooking in an old-mini-bus sized dish 
I've always had a strong suspicion, turkey could be a viable solution ...
