Ingredients

  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup fishballs sliced ( available in Asian supermarkets, frozen aisles)
  • 1 piece chicken breast
  • 1 and ½ cup chicken stock stock from boiling the chicken breast
  • 2 155 g canned sardines regular or spicy - found in Asian aisles
  • 100 g pancit bihon noodles
  • 100 g pancit canton noodles

Instructions

  • Add the chicken breast and 3 cups of water to a pot and let boil. Cook until chicken is tender enough to be flaked by a fork. Set aside the broth and flake the chicken by hand or by using two forks.
  • Pour contents of canned sardines into a bowl. Mash the sardines meat using a fork.
  • Heat oil in a large pan or wok, cook the fishballs, stirring constantly to avoid burning. Remove fishballs from pan and set aside.
  • Add more oil if necessary. Saute garlic and onion in the same wok until soft. Add the mashed sardines with the sauce. Stir for about two minutes.
  • Add the chicken stock (from boiling the chicken)  and let boil. Add the noodles. Lower heat, stir and combine ingredients and cook until noodles are soft and the liquid has been absorbed. Add water or chicken stock if needed. Add the fishballs and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve hot.
