Looking for a specific Pancit recipe?

Question

A guy at work brought in a Pancit dish his wife made for a potluck and it was awesome! It had 2 different kinds of noodles, shredded veggies, chicken, shrimp and egg slices. Asked him for the recipe but he said she doesn't give any recipes up. :(
Can anyone help?

Answer 1

There are many different Pancit dishes ( Palabok, Malabon, Guisado) but you mentioned egg slices, so it must be Pancit Palabok, so here is a link

Give it a try, it's excellent and easy to make. You can even buy the flavor packets made by Mama Sita at Asian stores.

Answer 2

I love Filipino cooking! I usually use the ready to make stuff at the Asian market. You may want to try some different websites like: www.lutongbahay.com; www.filipinorecipe.com www.filipino-cooking.com.

The hard part about Asian cooking is getting the right flavor. I would offer to trade dishes with this co-worker until you have mastered pancit.

Answer 4

I cook turkeys that way, all night, but a chicken is too small to cook that way. For turkeys, wrap tightly in several layers of heavy duty foil. I preheat the oven at 500 degrees. Add the turkey, let it cook an hour, then turn oven down to 200 degrees. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR. It cooks all night and is super moist and tender the next day. I would not try this with a chicken, it would be chicken mush I am afraid.
