Chicken Salpicao Noodle Stir-Fry is a delicious, savory dish that combines tender marinated chicken with flavorful rice noodles. This recipe brings Asian-inspired zest with a touch of sweetness and a hint of smokiness, offering a satisfying meal that is perfect for dinner any night of the week.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix together the Worcestershire sauce and spice mix.
- Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Usually, this involves soaking them in warm water for about 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated chicken pieces in a single layer and cook for about 6-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the minced garlic and sliced shallots, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and shallots are tender.
- Push the garlic and shallots to the side of the skillet, and add the butter and brown sugar to the center.
- Allow the butter to melt and the sugar to dissolve, creating a caramel-like sauce.
- Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, and toss to coat with the sauce.
- Add the drained rice noodles, tossing everything together to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well-mixed.
- Transfer the Chicken Salpicao Noodle Stir-Fry to serving plates.
- Optionally, garnish with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, or a squeeze of lime for added flavor.
Tips:
- Marinate the chicken thighs in the Worcestershire sauce and spice mix for at least 30 minutes to ensure the flavors penetrate the meat well.
- Use fresh rice noodles for the best texture, but if only dried noodles are available, make sure to soak them in warm water before cooking.
- Stir-fry the ingredients on high heat to achieve a nice sear on the chicken and to keep the vegetables crisp.
- Keep an eye on the garlic and shallots to prevent them from burning, as burned garlic can add an unpleasant bitterness to the dish.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of brown sugar to suit your taste preference.
With its rich combination of flavors and textures, Chicken Salpicao Noodle Stir-Fry is sure to become a family favorite. It’s a delightful dish that is straightforward to prepare yet impressively tasty, making it ideally suited for both weekday meals and special occasions. Enjoy this culinary adventure with every bite!
