I got this from Rachel Ray's 365: No Repeats but made some alterations. This would be really good with added mushrooms and onions or pretty much an vegetables you like! You could also omit the chicken and swap vegetable stock for the chicken stock and add some tofu for a yummy vegetarian meal! I have made this with more or less liquid depending on whether I wanted soup or something closer to chicken lo mein. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts or 1 lb chicken thigh |
4 garlic cloves |
2 inches piece fresh ginger |
1 cup shredded carrot |
1 teaspoon garlic salt (to taste) |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper (to taste) |
2 teaspoons ground cumin (i omitted this because my family doesn't like it) |
2 teaspoons chinese five spice powder |
6 cups chicken broth or 6 cups stock |
1/2 lb vermicelli |
4 scallions |
1 cup fresh crisp bean sprouts |
1 cup fresh spinach |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
