Instructions

Prep Noodles, Vegetables and Protein

Soak rice noodles for 15-30 minutes in room temperature water.
1 pack rice noodles
While the noodles are soaking, prep your vegetables. Mince 3 garlic cloves. Slice ½ white onion. Julienne (thinly sliced) 1 carrot. Slice 2 celery stalks and ¼ cabbage. Tip: Make sure all the vegetables are uniform in size to ensure even cooking!
3 garlic cloves, ½ white onion, 1 carrot, ¼ cabbage, 2 celery stalks
To prepare the meat, you can use chicken or pork. Thinly slice your pork. Tip: Tenderize the pork by pounding the meat on both sides with the back of your knife. Peel and de-vein the shrimp.
5-8 large shrimp, 1 pork loin (can sub with chicken)
The rice noodles should be soft after you are done prepping the vegetables/meat. Strain the noodles and set aside.

Saute

Heat pan to medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add 1 tablespoon oil. Add sliced pork and cook for 1 minute. Then add the shrimp and ½ teaspoon salt and fry for 1 minute until the shrimp has just turned orange and the pork is browned. Set meat and shrimp aside. Be careful not to overcook the meat because we are going to cook it again.
1 tablespoon avocado oil, 1 pork loin (can sub with chicken), ½ teaspoon salt, 5-8 large shrimp
Using the same pan on medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Add garlic and then onions. Saute for one minute. Then, add carrots. Saute for 1 minute, then add cabbage and celery. Saute for 2 minutes. Add 1 tbs soy sauce and ½ teaspoon salt. Cook until the cabbage has softened and set all the vegetables aside.
1 tablespoon avocado oil, 3 garlic cloves, 1 carrot, ¼ cabbage, 2 celery stalks, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Use the same pan and turn on low-medium heat. Add 2 cups of chicken broth and ¼ cup oyster sauce. Then, add noodles. Once the chicken broth has evaporated and cooked down (doesn’t look soupy). Stir and add the vegetables and meat. Mix together and if the noodles are looking a little dry (don’t add too much or it will be watery!), gradually add ½ cup chicken broth to the pan.

Finally add black pepper to taste and sliced green onions. This is optional, but feel free to add 1 to 2 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 to 2 tablespoon oyster sauce if you like the dish to be more savory. Hope you enjoy with some freshly squeeze calamansi or lime!
