Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dried rice vermicelli noodles
- 200 grams shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 200 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 large onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 red bell pepper (julienned)
- 1 green bell pepper (julienned)
- 1 medium carrot (julienned)
- 100 grams bean sprouts
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 3 scallions (chopped for garnish)
Instructions
Soak the rice vermicelli noodles in hot water for 5-7 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips. Season with a pinch of salt and white pepper, then set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
In the same wok, add another tablespoon of oil and stir-fry the chicken pieces until fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the wok. Add the minced garlic and sliced onion, stir-frying for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the red and green bell peppers, carrot, and bean sprouts. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the wok and add the curry powder. Stir the curry powder in the oil briefly to release its aroma.
Add the softened rice noodles, shrimp, and chicken back to the wok. Toss everything together to coat evenly with the curry powder.
Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well, ensuring the noodles and ingredients are evenly seasoned.
Adjust seasoning with salt and white pepper to taste. Stir for another 2 minutes until everything is heated through.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve immediately.
