Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams wide rice noodles
- 200 grams boneless chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 pieces bird's eye chili, finely chopped
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 100 grams baby corn, sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Begin by soaking the wide rice noodles in warm water for about 10 minutes or until they are soft. Drain and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken and stir-fry until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the minced garlic and chopped bird's eye chili, stir-frying until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the sliced onion, red bell pepper, and baby corn to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
Return the cooked chicken to the pan and add the soaked noodles. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, dark soy sauce, and sugar. Stir everything together, making sure the noodles are well-coated with the sauce.
Continue to stir-fry for another 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the noodles to fully cook.
Finally, add the fresh basil leaves and toss them through the noodles until just wilted.
Serve the stir-fried drunken noodles immediately, enjoying their rich and spicy flavors.
