Ingredients

  • 250 grams rice stick noodles
  • vegetable oil for deep frying, plus 2 tablespoon
  • 250 grams skinless chicken breast fillet, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste (puree)
  • 2 tablespoons palm sugar/brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce

  • 1 piece grapefruit zest, 2 inches (5 cm) long, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (fresh coriander) leaves

Instructions

Place noodles in plastic bag and roughly break up into bite-sized pieces. Heat oil in wok / frying pan until it reaches 375F / 190C on deep frying thermometer or until small bread cube dropped in oil sizzles and turns golden. Working in batches if necessary, add noodles and fry until golden and crisp, about 30 second. Using slotted spoon, remove from pan and drain on paper towels. In another frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons oil. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 4-5 minutes. Remove from pan. Add onion to same pan and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. In small bowl, combine tomato paste, sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, shredded zest and water. Add to pan, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, 3-4 minutes. Stir in chicken and noodles, raise heat to medium and cook until heated through, 1-2 minutes. To serve, spoon chicken and noodles onto individual plates. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves and garnish with zest strips. Accompany with lime wedges. Serve 4
