Denice's Pansit Bihon

Ingredients:
1 Package rice noodles
1 Cooked chicken breast or pork
1 small cabbage
4-5 celery sticks
1 package matchsticks carrots



1 chicken bouillon cube
1 Cup water
Soy sauce
1 small lemon or use lemon juice
vegetable oil
1 tsp. minced garlic

In a pot boil chicken or pork until tender.  when done, set aside broth and shred chicken or pork. (I shred the chicken in my kitchen aid for a few seconds).  (I have pre cooked chicken and I make two Cups of Chicken Broth.) In a medium size skillet, heat one tbsp vegetable oil and saute garlic and chicken together.  Add cut cabbage, cut celery, and carrots.  Add one fourth of a cup cup chicken broth and simmer for fifteen minutes.  Check vegetables occasionally, you don’t want them soggy.

In a big bowl, soak rice noodles in hot water for ten to fifteen minutes until tender, drain and then cut noodles with scissors. 

In a another pot, heat one tbsp  vegetable oil, half of a cup chicken broth, and half of a cup soy sauce.  Bring to boil, (I don’t add the chicken bouillon, I find it too salty) add chicken bouillon and dissolve, add rice noodles.  Stir occasionally.  If the noodles dry up add the remaining broth.  when noodles are done add in the cooked vegetables and mix well. 
Add lemon to noodles for more flavoring.

This fabulous recipe is from Tim’s wife Denice. We have to do it a bit different or it tastes too salty to me, although when Denice makes it it never is salty, go figure. This dish is amazing!
