A truly delicious dish. What's better than rice noodles? I'm guessing I'm getting rotten tomatoes from Italian food lovers right now ... wait, wait! I love her too! And with, and, and, and rosemary, of course. But I'm a girl, and all girls know that Italian pasta can be reflected in a bad light on a figure. Rice "pasta" is an ingenious solution. Insanely tasty, always healthy and not so high in calories. Along with chicken and leeks ... This is really cool. If you haven't tried cooking leeks, you've lost a lot. I adore it, one of the most delicious vegetables for me. Not as harsh and bitter as regular onions and has its own specific taste. I can eat it raw 🙂 This dish has, as it happened in my kitchen once, two cooking ends: in cream or in soy sauce. In both cases, delicious dishes are obtained, but completely different. And, in fact, the rice noodles can be replaced with basmati rice, which is also proven delicious. So, rice noodles with chicken and vegetables.
Ingredients
- Asian noodles - rice - 200 gr
- hen- fillet - 1 piece
- onion - leek - 1 pc
- mushrooms- champignons - 300 gr
- bell pepper- 1 PC
- cream- 10% - 300 ml (can be replaced with soy sauce - 2 tablespoons)
- butter - optional
Cooking method
Let's start with the preparation of the products: we rinse all the ingredients very well. Vegetables and greens cannot be washed in warm water, they can "wither" a little, as, in the end, the beauty of your dish will "wither". If the champignons still don't look very nice after washing, it is better to peel them by prying the top layer of the cap with a knife. Leeks need to be given special attention: in its feathers, closer to the white part, there is often earth remains, you can make a small incision in order to easily get to hard-to-reach places.
After washing, place the chicken fillet on a paper towel and dry. I attach particular importance to this process, because if water remains on the meat, throwing it into a hot frying pan with oil, it will start splashing in all directions, and this sometimes even hurts.
I advise you to decide on the cooking option right away. If you want a creamy sauce, then put a wok or regular pan to warm up, add a little vegetable oil, and then a little more butter. Vegetable oil must be added, because butter without it will burn out and your dish will smell bad. If it's soy sauce, then you can pour in some sesame oil for an Asian flavor. While the wok is heating, cut the chicken fillet into small, medium-length pieces.
Stir occasionally so that the pieces turn white on all sides.
Then we cut it into large strips.
Cut the leek into circles, about half a centimeter.
We also cut the mushrooms into pieces of approximately the same size.
It may seem to you that there are a lot of vegetables, but, in fact, this is not so. During the cooking process, their size will decrease significantly.
The chicken fillet should be slightly browned in the skillet.
After that, combine all the ingredients in a frying pan.
Mix everything well. If you will cook with soy sauce, then cover and reduce the heat so that the vegetables are stewed a little and all the liquid comes out of the mushrooms, but remains in the pan. If you chose the cream option, you do not need to cover the lid. Cooking like this for 8 minutes.
In the meantime, I'll show you how to make rice noodles.
Most likely, it is enough to put it in boiling water for a few seconds, but it may take longer for your rice noodles to cook. Read on the package, it says exactly how to cook rice noodles. And don't forget to add salt to the water!
And in time to remove from the fire, of course.
We return to the chicken and vegetables. Salt, pepper, add the necessary spices. If you decide to cook in soy sauce, then it is better not to salt and add only pepper, because this sauce is already extremely rich in tastes and aromas. You can add some garlic, chili, or ginger. To your taste for spiciness. And if it is a creamy sauce, add salt, and pepper, and marjoram, and basil, and bay leaf, or better just Provencal herbs.
Now mix everything and fill with cream or soy sauce. You don't need a lot of soy sauce, the main thing is that the food is soaked. On the contrary, there is more creamy, it will serve as a gravy. For thickening, you can add a tablespoon of flour. Cover with a lid, bring to a boil and that's it - dinner is ready. If you made the soy sauce option, transfer the noodles to the wok, stir and heat for another minute so that all the flavors mix and begin to harmonize.
If your choice falls on a creamy sauce, simply place the noodles in a plate, and on top of the main dish. Rice noodles with chicken and vegetables ready! Why did you get two options? It's just that once we, my man, forgot cream in the supermarket at the checkout, we had to improvise on the go. And I can honestly say that I like soy sauce a lot more 🙂 And by the way, this option will cook great. Enjoy your meal!
