1/3 cup (80 ml) reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp (30 ml) vegetable oil
2 tsp (10 ml) pureed ginger root
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts, each about 8 oz (250 g)
1/4 cup (60 ml) honey
Noodles
12 oz (375 g) rice vermicelli
hot water
3 tbsp (45 ml) vegetable oil
4 eggs, beaten
6 carrots, thinly sliced on the diagonal
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced on the diagonal
2 onions, thinly sliced
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 sweet red peppers, thinly sliced
2 tbsp (30 ml) minced ginger root
1/3 cup (80 ml) Indian yellow curry paste
2 tbsp (30 ml) reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp (15 ml) Asian hot chili sauce
Chopped fresh cilantro
Lime wedges
- For the chicken, combine soy sauce, oil and ginger in a shallow dish or sealable plastic bag. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover or seal bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or for up to 1 day.
- Preheat barbecue to medium.
- Remove chicken from marinade, discarding any excess. Grill, covered and turning once, 5 to 6 minutes per side or until no longer pink inside. Brush 1 side with honey, turn and grill for 1 minute. Brush remaining side with honey, turn and grill for 1 minute or until well glazed. Transfer to a bowl or cutting board and let cool slightly. Shred chicken into large pieces or slice thinly. Keep warm.
- Soak rice vermicelli in a large bowl of hot water for about 5 minutes until softened or according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Heat 1 tbsp (15 ml) of the oil over high heat in a large wok and swirl to coat. Pour in eggs and fry without stirring until almost set. Stir to break up eggs slightly and fry until just set, then transfer to a plate. Add half of remaining oil to wok. In 2 batches, stir-fry carrots, celery and onions for 3 to 4 minutes or until onions are softened. Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining oil between batches. Add garlic, red peppers, ginger and curry paste to wok and stir-fry for 3 minutes or until peppers are tender.
- Return carrot mixture to wok and add noodles, soy sauce and chili sauce. Fry, stirring gently, but thoroughly, with 2 large spatulas, until noodles are well coated in spices and steaming hot. Add eggs and stir just to combine. Arrange noodles on a platter and add chicken. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges. Serve extra chili sauce on the side.
Serves 10 to 12
