QUICK AND EASY PANCIT

• Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic until soft. Stir in chicken cabbage, carrots and soy sauce. Cook until cabbage begins to soften. Toss in noodles, and cook until heated through, stirring constantly. Transfer pancit to a serving dish and garnish with quartered lemons.

PANCIT - AUTHENTIC FILIPINO NOODLES WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• This is what the rice noodles look like. I prefer the thin vermicelli
• In a wok or large skillet with higher sides, heat oil until nice and hot - sizzly, if you will.
• Place the chicken in and brown it on both sides until it's no longer pink. Remove and set aside. Skip this step if using precooked chicken.
• In the still hot pan, add carrots and celery and sauté for about 6 minutes until beginning to get soft but still firm.
• Add the minced garlic to the veggies and sauté for about 30 seconds.
• Add the cabbage mix and stir everything together...heating through...you don't want to cook the cabbage too much; it should be a little bit crunchy. Then, remove everything from the pan.
• In the still hot pan (see a trend? Keep that pan nice and HOT!) add the chicken broth, Worcestershire, soy sauce and dry soup mix. Heat through.
• Add the dry noodles to the pan and let the liquid get absorbed. It will happen, just wait for it...wait for it...see? It happens pretty quickly.
• As soon as the noodles have almost absorbed all of the liquid and they are easily stirrable (pretty sure that's a word), add the veggies and chicken back in and mix everything together; heating through. It's easier at this point to use tongs to mix.
• That's it! I like to add hot chili paste to mine afterwards. YUM!!

AUTHENTIC FILIPINO PANCIT

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add chicken thighs and boil until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 30 minutes. Strain broth into a bowl to reserve. Shred chicken thighs using 2 forks.
• Place noodles in a large bowl and pour in hot chicken broth, adding hot water to cover if needed. Set aside until noodles are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Blanch noodles with cold water and drain well. Place into a bowl and add soy seasoning, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a skillet or large wok over medium-high heat. Saute garlic in the hot oil until it begins to brown, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add chicken, cabbage, and carrots. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes; season with garlic salt. Mix chicken mixture with noodles, add soy seasoning to taste, and serve.
