Thai noodles with chicken topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp dark peanut butter
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh ginger root
- 1 large red onion, finely diced
- 450 g of minced chicken
- 2 tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tsp garlic chili sauce (such as sambal oelek)
- 4 cups lightly salted chicken broth
- Half a bunch of mustard greens, leaves torn
- 170 g rice noodles
- 1/4 cup finely chopped pickled ginger
- Chopped salted peanuts and fresh cilantro, for serving
Preparation:
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the peanut oil over medium-high heat. Add fresh ginger and three-quarters of the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens, 5 minutes. Add the ground chicken, turmeric, chili sauce, and 1 teaspoon of salt; cook, breaking up any clumps, until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 cup water, chicken broth, and mustard greens (the pot will be crowded, but the greens will wilt quickly). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the broth thickens slightly and the greens are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
- Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add the rice noodles, stirring to prevent sticking. Cook until the noodles are tender, 2-4 minutes. Drain, rinse the noodles under cold water, and shake off excess water. Use kitchen scissors to trim the noodles to make them shorter.
- Divide the pickled ginger, noodles, and chicken broth among deep bowls. Sprinkle with peanuts, cilantro, and red onion, and season with salt to taste.
