Ingredients

PANCIT and CHICKEN:

  • 6 ounces chicken thigh fillet about 2 large fillets
  • 4 ounces bihon (thin rice noodles)
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 cups water

VEGETABLES:

  • 3.5 ounces green beans
  • 1 small carrot about ¾ cup loosely packed
  • ½ small cabbage 1 cup loosely packed
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • ½ piece thinly sliced yellow onion
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1 piece fresh lemon wedges preferably calamansi
  • 1 tablespoon chopped coriander divided

AIR FRYER LECHON KAWALI:

Instructions

  • In a large pan boil chicken thigh fillet in salted water. Remove the scum. Remove chicken. Slice chicken in bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  • In the same pan, boil bihon in salted chicken stock. Loosen bihon once it starts to soften. Add cabbage and cook for 1 minute.
  • In another skillet (preferably while bihon is boiling), sauté onions until soft and translucent. Then add garlic. Sauté until garlic is fragrant.
  • Add sliced chicken thigh fillets then slightly season with salt and ground black pepper. Combine well.
  • Add carrots and sauté for 1 minute. Mix in green beans. Pour soy sauce and oyster sauce. Combine well and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer half of the chicken-vegetable mixture into the large pan with softened bihon and cabbage. Gently toss until well-combined.
  • Add in half of the coriander and sesame oil. Give it a final gentle toss.
  • Top with the remaining chicken-vegetable mixture and bite-sized chunks of Air Fryer Lechon Kawali. Garnish with the remaining coriander.

Notes

Do not overboil chicken. Remove the chicken once it turns white, about 3 to 5 minutes in medium-high heat. The chicken will be cooked with the vegetables and continue to heat through with the bihon.
Do not overcook carrots, green beans, and cabbage. They are best crisp tender to the bite.
