Servings: 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 8 ounces vermicelli rice noodles
- 1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons neutral oil, divided
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, julienned
- 1 head green cabbage, shredded
- 1¼ cups chicken broth
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
Instructions
- Soak the rice noodles in cool water for 7-8 minutes, or until softened. Drain the water and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil over medium high heat in a large skillet or wok. While the oil is heating, season the chicken with salt, ground ginger, and pepper. Cook the chicken in the skillet for 7-8 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from the pan into a large bowl.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of neutral oil to the skillet, then add the garlic and onion. Saute for 5-6 minutes, until fragrant and the onion has begun to soften.
- Add the carrots and saute for an additional 2-3 minutes. Finally, add the cabbage and saute for 1-2 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the skillet into the same bowl with the chicken.
- Carefully pour the chicken broth, soy sauce, and oyster sauce into the skillet and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the softened noodles and toss to coat in the sauce.
- Allow the noodles to soak up the sauce, then add the chicken and vegetables back into the skillet. Toss to combine.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Use whatever vegetables you want! Snow peas, broccoli, corn, celery, whatever you have on hand or prefer!
- Change up the meat or make it vegetarian.
- If you don't use a Filipino soy sauce (like Datu Puti), add 1 tablespoon cane sugar or coconut sugar to the sauce.
