Pancit Bihon Guisado is a Filipino noodle dish and is a staple second to rice. This was brought by the chinese immigrants and was localized since then.
INGREDIENTS:
1 lbs pancit bihon noodles ( rice noodles)
1 chicken breast, boiled and cooked, and shredded
1/2 lbs pork, cut into small thin slices
1 cup small shrimp (fresh or cooked will do), peeled
1 dried chinese sausage or chorizo thinly sliced (optional)
1/8 lbs peapods or snow pea
1 cup carrot julienned
1/2 small cabbage, sliced or chopped will do
1 cup celery leaves, chopped finely
1 medium sized onion, chopped
2 to 3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbsp grated ginger
3 to 4 cups chicken broth ( I used the chicken broth from the chicken breast that I boiled or if it is not enough I add chicken broth )
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp salt
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp cooking oil
4 small limes, to serve
Cooking procedure:
1. In a large pot, heat the oil and saute the ginger, garlic and onion.
2. Add the pork and cook until the outer part turns light brown.
3. Add the chicken, chorizo, shrimp and chicken broth let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
