FIlipino Pancit Canton Recipe


FIlipino Pancit Canton Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pack Filipino pancit canton noodles (break up into 6-8 inch pieces or in flat sections so it's easier to cook, but on special occasions, try to keep them long :))
  • 1 1/2-2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tbs. soy sauce or to taste
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups, shredded carrot
  • 3 celery sticks, sliced on the diagonal
  • 1-2 cups shredded cabbage
  • ~12 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into small matchsticks (optional)
  • 1 chicken breast, bone in
  • 1/2 lb. pork chops, cut into small pieces
  • 2 Chinese sausages or longanisa, sliced on the diagonal
  • 2 hard boiled eggs, sliced
  • lemon wedges
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Heat chicken broth in saucepan. Add chicken breast and turn to low simmer. Poach chicken until it's done, about 15-20 minutes. Remove, let cool, and shred chicken. Set chicken broth aside.
  2. In large skillet with high sides, a paella pan, or a dutch oven, heat pan over medium-high heat. Add a couple tbs. of oil and add onion, some of the scallions, and some of the carrots and celery. Turn down heat to medium and saute until onions are translucent, 5-10 minutes. Add dry noodles and one cup of broth, stirring to soften (note: you may have to do this in batches depending on how big your pan is). Taste. If still hard, add another 1/2 cup of broth. If after stirring for a few minutes, add more broth but add it slowly now as you don't want the noodles to get soggy. Mix in 2 tbs. of soy sauce. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding salt and pepper. Put aside on a platter.
  3. In skillet, add a little more oil and add scallions, garlic, veggies, pork, and sausage, seasoning as desired with a little wine, soy sauce, salt, lemon, etc. Add chicken breast at the end of cooking and mix everything together.
  4. Add meat and vegetable mixture to the pancit, mixing to incorporate. Garnish the pancit with sliced boiled egg around the edges of the platter, lemon wedges.
