Ingredients
Rice Noodles:

1 cup cooked chicken breast (shredded)
Sauce:
1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Liquid:
1/2 cup chicken broth or water
Garnish:
Lemon wedges and chopped green onions
Instructions
- Soak the Rice Noodles: Soak the rice noodles in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sauté garlic and onion until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add Vegetables: Add carrots, green beans, and cabbage. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender.
- Combine Ingredients: Stir in shredded chicken, soy sauce, oyster sauce, pepper, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer.
- Toss with Noodles: Add drained noodles and toss gently to combine. Cook for another 3–4 minutes until noodles absorb the sauce and are fully cooked.
- Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with green onions and lemon wedges before serving hot.
Notes
- You can substitute shrimp or pork for the chicken.
- Add a splash of fish sauce for more umami flavor.
- Pancit is best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a skillet with a splash of broth.
