Ingredients

  • 5 clumps glass noodles
  • 3 tbsp fish sauce
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 8 garlic cloves
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 cabbage
  • 6 carrots
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 5 green onions
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  • All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
  • Place the uncooked noodles in a large bowl and cover with room temperature water. Allow to soak for 10 minutes or until soft before draining.
  • In a medium bowl, add the fish sauce and soy sauce. Chop the chicken into strips or, if you prefer, bite-sized pieces. Place in the bowl with the soy sauce and fish sauce and leave to marinate while you prepare other ingredients.
  • Finely chop the cabbage or use a potato peeler to grate it.
  • Cut the carrots in half then into thin slices or you can grate the carrot too.
  • Cut and dice the tomatoes and set aside. Finely dice the green onions from the whites up and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot.
  • Add the chopped onion to the hot oil and cook for 3 minutes or until they turn translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another minute while stirring.
  • Add the pieces of chicken to the skillet and cook for 8 minutes or until the chicken is brown and cooked all the way through (if you have a meat or candy thermometer you can stick it into the middle of the chicken to check if it is fully cooked–cooked chicken should be at least 165F).
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk to separate.
  • Push everything in the skillet to one side. Add a little bit more oil if needed then pour in the beaten eggs.
  • Scramble the eggs around the skillet for 5 minutes or until mostly cooked, then scramble with the chicken and onion until the eggs are fully cooked, about another 2 minutes. Add the shredded cabbage and carrot and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add the marinade from the chicken, the sugar, and pepper. Stir to mix.
  • Add the noodles and quickly toss them with the sauce and other ingredients until they are coated. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the noodles are fully soft and cooked through.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes and green onions and toss to combine.
  • Remove from heat and evenly divide into four bowls.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
