Servings: 3 people
Ingredients
- 8 oz. (230g) rice sticks "Excellent" brand
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 small onion sliced
- 4 oz. (125g) boneless and skinless chicken thigh or chicken breast, cut into pieces
- 4 oz. (125g) shrimp shelled and deveined
- 2 oz. (60g) green cabbage thinly sliced
- 2 oz. (60g) carrots cut into thin strips
- 2 stalks scallions cut into 2-inch (5 cm) strips
Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- salt to taste
- 3 dashes ground black pepper
Instructions
- Soak the rice sticks in water for 5-10 minutes, or until they become soft. Drain in a colander and set aside. Prepare the garlic, onions, and vegetables.
- Heat a wok or skillet over medium to high heat. Add the oil and stir-fry the garlic and onions until the onions turn translucent. Add the chicken and shrimp, and stir-fry until the surface turns white, followed by the cabbage and carrots.
- Add the rice sticks to the wok or skillet and stir to combine well with a spatula. If you have a pair of long chopsticks for cooking, use them instead of the spatula. This will help prevent the rice sticks from breaking too much.
- Add all the ingredients for the Seasonings and stir to mix well. Once the noodles are cooked through, about 1 minute, add the chopped scallions, stir, and dish out immediately.
