Rotisserie Chicken Stir Fry with Rice Noodles

Any kind of noodle dish in the Philippines is called “Pancit”. Since this recipe uses noodles, I’ll be referring to the dish as  “Chicken Pancit”.  The traditional recipe uses pork as seen in this Easy FIlipino Pancit recipe here.

Chicken has a tendency to be dry and bland so I had to come up with a Filipino Pancit recipe that’s tasty. Since I was making Chicken Pancit (Chicken Stir Fry Noodles) for a friend’s birthday, I didn’t want to risk feeding a group of people with a Filipino dish that’s not well received. I came up with the idea of using store bought Rotisserie Chicken. Since the meat is well-seasoned, Bone Broth can be made from the bones, and the noodles will be more flavorful with the broth’s deep and savory flavors.  I usually cook this dish for groups, so I made it easier on myself by buying shredded cabbage/coleslaw mix instead of cutting the cabbage by hand.

Tips:
To save time, skip making the Chicken Bone Broth and buy ready made Bone Broth at the store.
If using another type of noodles, read package instructions and adjust bone broth  amount accordingly
The traditional way of serving pancit is to top the noodles with the cooked meat and vegetables.
