Chicken Stir Fry with Rice Noodles image

Recipe video above. A terrific fridge and pantry forage meal, made with your choice of dried noodles, a simple but tasty stir fry sauce and whatever veggies you can scrape together. This is loaded with veggies and light on the noodles, and if you cook it for more than 5 minutes, it's overcooked!! This is a super quick midweek stir fry that is really tasty.

Categories     dinner, lunch, soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4 to 6 (you'll have some chicken left over)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 smallish chicken, about 3 to 3 1/2 pounds, cut up and skinned, or the equivalent of chicken pieces, skinned
1 onion, quartered
1 piece ginger root, about 2 inches long, peeled and sliced
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 teaspoon peppercorns
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons Vietnamese or Thai fish sauce (you can substitute soy sauce if you don't have fish sauce)
1/2 pound dried rice noodles (rice sticks)
1 5- or 6-ounce bag baby spinach
1 cup chopped cilantro
2 limes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • If possible, do this step a day ahead: Combine the chicken and 3 quarts water in a large, heavy soup pot and bring to a simmer. Skim off foam and add the onion, ginger root, garlic cloves, peppercorns and 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce the heat, cover partially, and simmer 40 minutes. Skim occasionally. Remove the chicken pieces from the broth and allow to cool. Line a strainer with cheesecloth and strain the broth into a bowl. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred and refrigerate in a covered container until ready to serve the soup. Refrigerate the broth for at least 3 hours or, preferably, overnight. Lift off the fat from the surface and discard.
  • About 30 minutes before you wish to serve the meal, remove the chicken and broth from the refrigerator. Bring the broth to a simmer and add the fish sauce (or soy sauce) and salt to taste. Taste and adjust seasonings. Place the rice noodles in a bowl and cover with hot water. Let sit for 20 minutes, then drain.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook just until tender, 30 seconds to a minute. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
  • Just before serving, add the spinach to the simmering soup. To serve the soup, distribute the noodles among 4 to 6 large bowls. Top with shredded chicken and a handful of chopped cilantro. Ladle the simmering broth, with some of the spinach, into each bowl over the chicken and noodles. Serve at once, passing the limes for guests to squeeze on as they wish.

CHICKEN RICE BOWL



Chicken Rice Bowl image

This chicken rice bowl recipe is so easy to toss together on a busy weeknight, and I usually have the ingredients already on hand. I start sauteing the onion and pepper first, then I prepare the instant rice. If you like, top it with some shredded sharp cheddar cheese. -Tammy Daniels, Batavia, Ohio
