My family's favorite and it is a huge hit with all my non-Filipino friends as well. All of the meats are interchangeable and optional. This recipe can be served alone or with rice.
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. skinless chicken breast
1 lb. lean pork
1 lb. small shrimp, shelled
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 cabbage, shredded
1/2 lb green beans or pea pods
3 carrots, thinly sliced into rectangular
1 cup celery, thinly sliced
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 cup broth, from boiling chicken
1 lb. rice sticks, soaked in water for 15 minutes or until
softened then drained
1 bun scallions, finely chopped
Lime (optional)
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
) Boil chicken and pork in 1 1/2 cups water. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat; slice meat into small pieces. Reserve the broth.
2) Heat oil in a large, wide saute pan. Saute onions and garlic until onion is translucent.
3) Add sliced meat, shrimp, soy sauce and stir-fry 5 minutes. Over high heat, add cabbage, green beans or pea pods, carrots, celery, salt, pepper and 1 cup of broth. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Set aside 1 cup of mixture.
4) Reduce heat to low and add rice sticks, tossing gently with wooden spoons until cooked through and mixed with meat and vegetables, about 3 minutes.
5) If the mixture seems dry, add more broth.
6) Transfer to platter, garnish with chopped scallions.
7) Squeeze lime over each serving and sprinkle with additional garnishes.
