Ingredients
- 200 grams Rice vermicelli noodles
- 200 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 medium Carrot, julienned
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 100 grams Green beans, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 small Shallots, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
Soak the rice vermicelli noodles in hot water for 5-7 minutes or until soft. Drain and set aside.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and stir-fry until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining vegetable oil. Sauté the minced garlic and chopped shallots until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the julienned carrot, sliced red bell pepper, and chopped green beans to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the softened rice vermicelli noodles.
Pour in the low sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and sprinkle black pepper over the mixture. Toss everything until well combined and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with chopped scallions and cilantro before serving, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your Low Sodium Bihun Goreng!
