Ingredients
- 8 oz. (226 g) rice vermicelli
- 1 handful fresh bean sprouts
- 8 oz. (226 g) boneless & skinless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- 4 tablespoons cooking oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 stalks scallion, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) length
Seasoning Sauce:
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce (Kimlan Light Soy Sauce)
- 1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce (ABC Brand)
- 4 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 dashes ground white pepper
Instructions
- Soak the rice vermicelli in warm water for 30 minutes or until they turn soft. Drain the rice noodles in a colander.
- Rinse the bean sprouts with water and set aside to drain. Lightly coat the chicken meat with the corn starch. This step will tenderize the chicken.
- Mix all the Seasoning Sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat up a wok or skillet on high heat. Add the cooking oil. When the oil is heated, add the minced garlic. Stir-fry until aromatic or turn light brown. Add in the chicken and stir fry until the chicken turn white on the surface.
- Add the rice vermicelli noodles and the Seasoning Sauce. Stir the rice noodles continuously to blend well with the sauce. Continue to stir fry for 2-3 minutes or until noodles turn soft or no longer wet. Add the bean sprouts and scallions. Stir-fry for another minute or until the bean sprouts are cooked. Dish out and serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute chicken with pork, beef, shrimp, other seafood such as squid and scallops. You can also combine a few protein together.
Once you master the techniques of stir-frying noodles, you can start experimenting with other noodles such as Chow Mein using egg noodles or Lo Mein noodles.
