Ingredients
- 19 oz Fresh rice noodles
- ½ lb skinless boneless chicken thighs or chicken breast
- 1 cup Chinese broccoli or bok choy, yu choy sum or broccolini
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 large red chili pepper sliced
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce or vegetarian stir fry sauce to marinate chicken
Noodle Sauce:
- 2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Regular soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce or vegetarian stir fry sauce
- 2.5 tablespoon white vinegar or rice vinegar/apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2.5 teaspoon white granulated sugar or cane sugar/brown sugar/palm sugar
Instructions
- In a large bowl, marinate sliced chicken with oyster sauce. Set aside to marinate as you prepare other ingredients.
- Wash Chinese broccoli in cold water and trim the ends. Cut them into 2-inch-long pieces. If the stalks are very thick, slice them into thinner pieces or only use the leafy parts.
- In a small bowl, combine Noodle Sauce ingredients. Set aside.
- If needed, microwave the rice noodles for 2-3 minutes at 60 second intervals until warm. Let them cool and gently separate them. (If you're using rice noodle sheets, slice them into 1-inch wide noodles. If you're using rice noodle rolls, split them down the middle by hand).
- In a large pan on medium-high heat, add ½ tablespoon of vegetable oil and fry chicken until cooked through, about 2-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Reduce to low heat, add ½ tablespoon of vegetable oil and fry minced garlic and red chili for 10 seconds.
- Fry Chinese broccoli for 1 minute or until softened and push everything to the side of the pan.
- Add ½ tablespoon oil into the empty space, pour in eggs and scramble them breaking them into bite-sized pieces. Toss with other ingredients and push everything to the side.
- Increase to high heat, add remaining vegetable oil into the empty space. Toss in rice noodles and noodle sauce until most of the sauce has evaporated. Add back in chicken and toss. (Optional: Let the noodles char for 30-60 seconds in the pan for smoky flavor). Serve and enjoy!
