Savory deliciousness with a hint of sweetness and lemony tang is this tried and tested EASY recipe for the classic Filipino noodle stir-fry PANCIT! Perfect for any party as it is a sure crowd-pleaser and makes a huge batch.

Pansit/Pancit Philippine Noodle Stir-fry

olive oil

garlic,

onion, (chopped)

(8 oz) packs of Pansit Bihon (rice noodle stick)

tbsp soy sauce, (regular

1½ tbsp oyster sauce, (regular

tsp sugar

salt, (to taste)

pepper, (to taste)

lemon

Boil the chicken (1 large breast or 2 thighs) in over 3 cups of water (or enough water to cover the meat). Cook until tender. Reserve about 3 cups of the liquid remaining. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred them or slice into small pieces. Set aside.

Heat oil in a big wok. Saute garlic and onion for a minute. Add the cooked chicken and season with a little salt and pepper. Stir in the veggies and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until a little tender.

Pour about 2 1/2 cups of the reserved liquid into the wok. Season with the soy and oyster sauces and sugar. Bring to a boil.

When it begins to boil add the egg noodles (pancit canton, if using this as combo with rice stick noodles). Press and fold the noodles a few times to ensure it gets soaked in the sauce. When it starts to soften stir in the rice stick noodles/pancit bihon. Continue to stir and fold the noodles while trying to soak them in the sauce until all the liquid has dried up and the noodles are tender.

Add some more stock or water if the sauce dries up before the noodles are tender. Taste and adjust seasoning with a little salt and pepper, if desired. Serve with calamansi (or lemon/lime) – squeeze a few drops on your noodles before eating for some extra flavor and tang! Enjoy!

This recipe hits all the right spots! I use cabbage and carrots because that’s what I remember growing up. I also sometimes add some pork and shrimp to the chicken.

This was a light and tasty dish. I will make it again but will double the vegetables in it. I used cabbage, carrots and green beans.

I love the noodles used and the flavorful sauce. Definitely, this pancit is must-make noodle stir fry meal.

Served this pancit for dinner last night and it didn't disappoint! So easy and quick; perfect for busy weeknights!

I made this noodle stir-fry alternating with already known in our family rice stir-fry. Well, it is pure deliciousness!! And I highly recommend making it!

My noodle loving family really enjoyed this pancit!  Such a flavourful dish.

I have added this to my menu for this weekend. We have a few family members coming over and this looks simple enough to make for a crowd of hungry guests. I love Pancit, so I can't wait to give this recipe a try.
