Hey Everyone. I am back with other DEElicious recipe, pancit bihon. Whenever I update my status saying I made pancit I have someone asking for a recipe =) So, I wanted to share this recipe for you pancit eating mother humpers LOL!!!
Pancit Bihon
Pancit Bihon is made with thin white rice noodles. I think when I crave for pancit I want pancit bihon more than pancit canton which is the yellow thick noodles. Some people mix both noodles. Oh, I love it when my grandma would cook pancit. Melt in your mouth goodness. Miss and Love you GMA!!
Things that I used:
- 2 pkgs of pancit bihon rice noodles
- a handful of green beans, julienned
- 3 small carrots, julienned
- half a cabbage, cut into stripes
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
SUGGESTION: Cut all veggies and shred chicken before hand to make cooking time faster.
- 3 Tbs Oyster Sauce
- 1 Chicken Cube
- 1 can or more Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
- Black Pepper
- Garlic Powder
- 1 Rotisserie Chicken
* SIDE NOTE: You can use fresh chicken breast and boil it. I was lazy to do that =)
First things first...Soak your noodles in water. It should take about 10-15 mins to loosen up.
Got my chicken shredded and my veggies chopped and ready to go. LETS START COOKING!
First saute the onions til for bout 3-4 mins.
Then add the garlic.
After 5 mins or so add the carrots and green beans.
When the carrots are cooked hmm lets say 5-7 mins add chicken and mix well. Since the chicken is already cooked this won't take long.
Add your seasonings: Pepper and Garlic Powder and mix well!
Add your oyster sauce. Mix well.
After a few mins add the chicken broth. I think I should of used 2 cans.
Let it cook for bout 5 mins. Man, don't this look good already? =D
Then you are going to add 1 chicken cube. I love these cubes compared to Knorrs.
Peek-a-boo I see you...Make sure that the cube disolves and mix, mix, mix!!!
It's NOODLES time!!! This is where you are gonna WORK your arms! LOL!
MIX...MIX..MIX...MIX
& MIX SOMEMORE AND MORE AND MORE!
Now that you got it mixed VERY WELL add cabbage! This cooking time won't take long at all. I normally let it simmer for 10 mins though just to let all the ingredients mariante...and at this point your house should smell divine!!! But after you add the cabbage make sure to MIX..MIX..MIX..LOL
Since I made this for my friends daugters 1 month celebration I had put it in a tupperware and it's ready to go =) I really hope you found this recipe easy to do and if you have any questions feel free to ask me. Your arms will be hurtting but your mouth will thank you for it. Enjoy this recipe everyone!!

OHHHH thank you for this recipe! I haven't tried making pancit yet, but now I think it's time :)
ReplyDeleteFew questions..
1. does the oyster sauce make much of a taste difference? Leila is allergic to all seafood, so if I don't have to use it, I'd rather not (otherwise I can just use it on us and make her portion with none)
2. Does the chicken cube add a lot of flavor?I don't know if we have those at our commissary. What section would they be in?
I think oyster sauce does make a difference but you don't need it. If you look up a pancit recipe it doesn't call for oyster sauce. You can use salt. I don't use salt for my pancit.
ReplyDeleteYes, the chicken cube does give it more flavor. I think they should have it at the commisary. They have KNORRS brand and the Wyler's one. Try checking by the seasonings or the asian aisle, or by the chicken broth area. I am pretty sure the commisary carries it. If anything ask a worker.
If you do try it, let me know how it came out =)
Hey Ashley a good alternate of Oyster Sauce is Soy Sauce =)
ReplyDeleteLooks so good! How much oyster sauce did you use?
ReplyDeleteOh my! I haven't been on this blog for years. So sorry but I think it was a Tablespoon or 2!
