Dragon Noodles With Chicken And Black Beans Recipes

CHICKEN WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the chicken and the marinade ingredients in a bowl, and mix until all the liquid is absorbed. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
• Pre-heat your wok over high heat, until it starts to smoke. This step is essential, as it prevents the chicken from sticking to the wok. With your spatula, spread 2 tablespoons of oil over the bottom of the wok. Add the chicken, and quickly spread the pieces into a single layer. Let the chicken cook for about 30 seconds, flip, and cook the other side for another 30 seconds. The chicken is done once it turns opaque--be careful not to overcook it. Turn off the heat, transfer the chicken to a dish, and set aside.
• Next, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the wok over medium heat. Add the ginger, and let it cook for 15 seconds. Next, add the garlic, the white parts of the scallions, and the black beans. Stir for another 30 seconds. Now turn up the heat to high. Add the green and red peppers, and stir fry for about a minute. Add the sugar, Shaoxing wine, salt, the chicken, 2 tablespoons of water, and the green parts of the scallion. Quickly stir-fry everything well to coat in the sauce, and serve!

Steps:

• Cook noodles according to package instructions and drain well.
• Meanwhile in a small bowl whisk together soy sauce, rice wine, chili oil, Sriracha sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and water. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat oil until shimmering. Season chicken with teaspoon salt and pepper. Add the chicken to skillet and cook, over medium-high heat, until chicken is cooked through, 3-5 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil and stir fry the green onions, carrots, and red bell pepper, over high heat, just until tender-crisp. Add the garlic to veggies and cook until fragrant.
• Add the noodles, sauce, and chicken back to the skillet, turning the heat down to low, and heat through. Adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with cilantro and sesame seeds and serve.

DRAGON NOODLES WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Method 1: Boil fettuccine per package directions. About 8-10 minutes. (Wheat noodles) Method 2: Bring a large pot of water to boil. Dump in the rice noodles and turn off heat. Let noodles sit in the hot water for 7-9 minutes - depending on how soft you want them to be. I like mine soft, so I leave them in for about 9 minutes.
• 2. While noodles are cooking, make the sauce. You will have enough sauce to save for another time or to use on the side as extra. Put all ingredients for sauce in a small saucepan and cook until butter is melted and sauce mixes well (about 5 minutes). Taste and adjust the hot sriracha sauce to your family's taste. I also sometimes add about a 1/4 cup of beef broth or chicken broth to stretch the sauce. This recipe is easily adapted to the cook's imagination or taste. You can add minced garlic and ginger or even a tablespoon of peanut butter! Note: This sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated in a mason jar for up to a week.
• 3. In a frying pan, saute the chicken strips until cooked through, then add an egg(s) to scramble.
• 4. Add the cooked, drained noodles and sauce. Top with sliced green onions and chopped fresh cilantro. Note: You can add the veggies (carrots and mushrooms, bell peppers, etc.) with the chicken and saute together.
• 5. This may sound difficult, but it's very easy and comes together quickly.

KOREAN BLACK BEAN SAUCE NOODLES (JAJANGMYEON)

Steps:

• Rinse the pork in cold water and pat it dry with kitchen paper. Add the pork marinade sauce onto the pork. Mix them well and leave it for 15 mins.
• Cut the onion, zucchini and potato into small cubes.
• Thin slice the mushrooms.
• Cut the cabbage into small to medium size pieces.
• Julienne cut the cucumber.
• Pre heat the wok until the bottom is heated well. Add the lard (or cooking oil) and melts it in the wok. Add the black bean paste and stir it constantly on medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. (Try not to burn it.) Add the brown sugar and stir it for an additional 2 to 3 mins.
• Scoop out the black bean paste (without the oil) and set it aside. Leave the oil in the wok to use in the next step.
• Add the pork into the wok and stir until the pork is half cooked.
• Add the onion, zucchini, and potato and stir until all are 1/3 cooked (for 3 to 5 mins).
• Add the mushrooms and cabbages and stir for 2-3 mins.
• Add the black bean paste (from step 2) into the wok and mix it in with vegetables. Stir for 1 to 2 mins.
• Add the chicken stock, water and rice wine then simmer it for 5 to 7 mins on medium heat. (Cover the wok with a lid if possible. This will make the cooking process faster.)
• Add the slurry into the wok then stir it. (This will thicken the black sauce. It is the final stage of making the black bean sauce.)
• (While working on step 7) Boil some water in a pot and add the noodles when it starts to boil. Boil them until the noodles are cooked (for 3 to 5 mins).
• Rinse the noodles in cold water and drain. Put them into a serving bowl/plate.
• Add the black bean sauce (from the step 8) on top of the noodles. You can serve it as it is or decorate it with some cucumber slices, green peas or sweet corn or hardboiled egg.
• Mix the sauce and the noodles well with chopsticks. Dig in. (It is ideal to have them with some (yellow) pickled radish. Apparently it helps digestion. Also eat it up quickly before the noodles get swollen.)
