CHICKEN AND SHRIMP CARBONARA



Chicken and Shrimp Carbonara image

My wife and I went to that popular Italian-American restaurant chain for dinner recently, and I had their shrimp and chicken carbonara. It was absolutely delicious and I thought, 'What the heck, I'll try making this at home.' I found a few recipes online, but none grabbed me. After studying several recipes, I came up with this recipe on my own. It's fairly simple to make, and my wife said it was better than the original.

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 large eggs
1/2 pound rice vermicelli or rice-stick noodles
2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more if needed
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 pound small shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails intact (reserve shells for Fish Stock)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 medium onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
3 carrots, cut into 1/4-inch dice ( 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/2 pound ground pork
1 tablespoon fish sauce
4 cups napa cabbage (about 1 pound), thinly sliced
2 1/4 cups Shrimp Stock for Rice Noodles with Chicken, Pork, and Shrimp
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 scallion, thinly sliced on the diagonal (1/4 cup)
1 to 2 lemons, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Place eggs in a small saucepan, and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat; let stand, covered, for 13 minutes. Drain. Cover with cold water, and let stand 2 minutes. Peel and quarter eggs. Cover, and refrigerate.
  • Fill a large bowl with warm water. Add noodles, and let soak for 15 minutes, stirring to separate as they soften. Drain.
  • Heat oil in a large, heavy stockpot over medium-high heat. Season chicken and shrimp with salt and pepper. Working in batches, cook chicken, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Add shrimp to stockpot, and cook, stirring, until bright pink, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer shrimp to another plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add additional oil if necessary. Add onion, carrots, and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 4 minutes. Add pork, and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Stir in fish sauce, and cook 1 minute. Add cabbage, and toss to coat. Add noodles, chicken, and stock, and gently stir. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender and most of the stock has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and let stand, partially covered, 5 minutes. Add shrimp and lemon juice, gently stirring to avoid breaking noodles.
  • Transfer to a platter. Sprinkle with scallion. Arrange hard-boiled eggs around noodles, and serve warm or at room temperature with lemon wedges.

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. When possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Season your food well: Don't be afraid to use salt, pepper, and other spices to season your food. This will help to bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients.
  • Cook your chicken and shrimp properly: Chicken and shrimp should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that they are safe to eat and that they have the best possible texture.
  • Don't overcrowd your pan: When cooking chicken and shrimp, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
