RICE NOODLE BOWLS WITH SWEET CHILI CHICKEN



Rice Noodle Bowls with Sweet Chili Chicken image

One of my favorite Vietnamese dishes is bun thịt nuong, which consists of cold or room temperature rice vermicelli topped with grilled pork and pickled and fresh vegetables. When I can't get to my favorite Vietnamese restaurant, I make this easy and tasty riff at home. It's layered with incredible flavor, which comes from sweet and tangy stir-fried chicken, aromatic basil and the best-ever quick pickles. Don't have the rice noodles? Swap in your favorite grain, pasta or spiralized vegetable.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
8 ounces rice noodles
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 Persian cucumber, thinly sliced
1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1/2 jalapeno, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1/4 cup sweet chili sauce, such as Mae Ploy
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
Sweet or Thai basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, then add a small handful of salt. Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of the canola oil and toss to coat.
  • While the noodles cook, in a medium bowl, mix the cucumber, onion and jalapeno with the 1/4 cup rice vinegar and a generous pinch of salt. Let stand for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the sweet chili sauce with the soy sauce, cornstarch and the remaining 1 tablespoon of the rice vinegar. In a large cast-iron skillet or wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chili sauce mixture and cook until the chicken is glazed, about 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the noodles to bowls and top with the chicken. Serve with the pickled vegetables and basil leaves.

SWEET CHILI CHICKEN WITH RICE



Sweet Chili Chicken With Rice image

This is a super simple meal that has wonderful flavour and can either be made for a main meal or as a light meal depending on the amount of rice cooked. As we are trying not to eat too many carbs at the moment and this was for a main meal I served ours with less rice and some sauced bok choy which paired really well. As you can only buy lemon grass in such large quantities here I have found a brand that is already made into a paste. I used to always use fresh but ended up throwing half of it away before I could use it, so I asked at my local Asian grocery store once what she had and she told me about the paste. It tastes just as good but to me it is more concentrated than fresh so I used 1 Teaspoon in this recipe, I would use 1 Tablespoon if using fresh.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best. You can also use shrimp or tofu if you prefer.
  • Make sure your chicken is cooked through: To ensure that your chicken is cooked safely, use a meat thermometer to check that it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your rice a more vibrant flavor and color. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can also use frozen or canned vegetables.
  • Be careful not to overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Use a good quality sweet chili sauce: The sweet chili sauce is what gives this dish its signature flavor. Make sure you use a good quality sauce that is not too sweet or too spicy.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The rice will start to lose its flavor if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Sweet chili chicken with Asian vegetable rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and vegetables, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
