Steps:
- This is what the rice noodles look like. I prefer the thin vermicelli
- In a wok or large skillet with higher sides, heat oil until nice and hot - sizzly, if you will.
- Place the chicken in and brown it on both sides until it's no longer pink. Remove and set aside. Skip this step if using precooked chicken.
- In the still hot pan, add carrots and celery and sauté for about 6 minutes until beginning to get soft but still firm.
- Add the minced garlic to the veggies and sauté for about 30 seconds.
- Add the cabbage mix and stir everything together...heating through...you don't want to cook the cabbage too much; it should be a little bit crunchy. Then, remove everything from the pan.
- In the still hot pan (see a trend? Keep that pan nice and HOT!) add the chicken broth, Worcestershire, soy sauce and dry soup mix. Heat through.
- Add the dry noodles to the pan and let the liquid get absorbed. It will happen, just wait for it...wait for it...see? It happens pretty quickly.
- As soon as the noodles have almost absorbed all of the liquid and they are easily stirrable (pretty sure that's a word), add the veggies and chicken back in and mix everything together; heating through. It's easier at this point to use tongs to mix.
- That's it! I like to add hot chili paste to mine afterwards. YUM!!

Steps:
- Boil the chicken (1 large breast or 2 thighs) in over 3 cups of water (or enough water to cover the meat). Cook until tender. Reserve about 3 cups of the liquid remaining. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred them or slice into small pieces. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a big wok. Saute garlic and onion for a minute. Add the cooked chicken and season with a little salt and pepper. Stir in the veggies and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until a little tender.
- Pour about 2 1/2 cups of the reserved liquid into the wok. Season with the soy and oyster sauces and sugar. Bring to a boil.
- When it begins to boil add the egg noodles (pancit canton, if using this as combo with rice stick noodles). Press and fold the noodles a few times to ensure it gets soaked in the sauce. When it starts to soften stir in the rice stick noodles/pancit bihon. Continue to stir and fold the noodles while trying to soak them in the sauce until all the liquid has dried up and the noodles are tender.
- Add some more stock or water if the sauce dries up before the noodles are tender. Taste and adjust seasoning with a little salt and pepper, if desired. Serve with calamansi (or lemon/lime) - squeeze a few drops on your noodles before eating for some extra flavor and tang! Enjoy!

Steps:
- First, start by preparing the kelp noodles by soaking to soften. Please don't skip this step! Kelp noodles are rubbery and softening them results in a much better pancit. See recipe notes for instructions.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute. Place the raw chicken pieces, the diced onion, and carrot in the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes. The chicken should be mostly done and the carrots should be slightly tender.
- Add the minced garlic and shredded cabbage to the pan. Cook for another 2 minutes to allow the cabbage to soften.
- Pour in the tamari (or coconut aminos). Add the salt and pepper, and then add in the pre-soaked (and drained) kelp noodles. Work the kelp noodles into the mixture, stirring them in until they are evenly dispersed among the rest of the ingredients. Cook another 5 minutes. The pancit is done when the noodles are hot and most of the moisture has cooked out. Squeeze juice from half a lemon over the noodles and toss.
- Serve the pancit with fresh green onion slices and extra lemon wedges.

Tips for Making Pancit
- Choose the right noodles. Pancit noodles come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The most common type of pancit noodle is the thin, round noodle made from rice flour. Other popular types of pancit noodles include miki (wheat noodles), bihon (glass noodles), and sotanghon (mung bean noodles).
- Soak the noodles before cooking. This will help to soften the noodles and make them more pliable.
- Use a large pot or wok to cook the pancit. This will give the noodles plenty of room to cook evenly.
- Add the vegetables and meat to the pancit towards the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent the vegetables from becoming overcooked.
- Season the pancit to taste with soy sauce, fish sauce, and/or oyster sauce.
- Serve the pancit hot, garnished with green onions, cilantro, and/or fried garlic.
Conclusion
Pancit is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a popular dish in the Philippines and other Southeast Asian countries. Pancit is easy to make and can be adapted to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give pancit a try!
