Noodles and Protein

Method

Preparation of Protein

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken or Pork

    In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, ground black pepper, and sugar. Slice the chicken or pork into thin strips and add to the marinade. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking Noodles

  1. 2

    Cook the Noodles

    Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the flat rice noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually around 3-5 minutes. Once cooked, drain and rinse the noodles under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.

Frying Ingredients

  1. 3

    Fry Garlic

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

  2. 4

    Cook the Marinated Protein

    Add the marinated chicken or pork to the skillet with the fried garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the protein is cooked through and slightly caramelized. Stir frequently to ensure even cooking.

Combine and Serve

  1. 5

    Combine Noodles and Toppings

    Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the protein and garlic. Toss everything together gently to combine, ensuring the noodles are well coated in the oil and flavors. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  2. 6

    Garnish

    Remove from heat and sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top. Serve hot and enjoy your Sii Cheh Kao Sweh!
