INSTRUCTIONS
- 1 PREPARE rice noodles as directed on package. Rinse under cold water; drain well. Set aside. Mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, fish sauce, brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of the water in small bowl until well blended; set aside. Whisk corn starch and remaining 1 tablespoon water in medium bowl. Add chicken, tossing to coat well.
- 2 HEAT wok or large skillet on high heat until very hot (you should see wisps of smoke just starting to rise from pan). Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the oil around outside edge of the wok. Place chicken in wok; sear strips about 1 minute on each side or until golden brown. Remove from wok; set aside.
- 3 ADD remaining 1 tablespoon oil, garlic paste and ginger paste to wok. Stir-fry 20 to 30 seconds until fragrant. Add shallot, green onion, and chili peppers. Stir-fry 30 seconds longer. Add rice noodles, tossing to mix well; stir-fry 1 minute longer until noodles are heated through.
- 4 WHISK soy sauce mixture; pour over noodles. Stir-fry on high heat about 1 minute until noodles have absorbed sauce evenly, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Return chicken to pan and add basil; stir-fry 1 minute longer, just until basil begins to wilt. Serve immediately. Garnish with additional chopped green onions, if desired.
- 5 Test Kitchen Tip: If noodles become sticky after cooking, rinse gently with warm water to separate.
