Instructions:
Prepare the Noodles:
Cook the Noodles:
If using fresh lomi noodles, cook according to package instructions until tender, then drain and set aside. If using dried noodles, cook until just al dente, drain, and set aside.
Cook the Pancit Lomi:
Sauté Aromatics:
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Cook Vegetables:
Add the julienned carrot and sliced bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Add Chicken and Sauces:
Add the shredded chicken to the skillet and mix well.
Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and hoisin sauce (if using). Stir to combine.
Add Noodles:
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet. Toss everything together to combine, making sure the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce.
Incorporate Eggs:
Push the noodle mixture to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble until cooked through, then mix the eggs into the noodle mixture.
Thicken (Optional):
If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens to your liking.
Season and Garnish:
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Stir in the sliced green onions.
Serve:
Plate the Dish:
Transfer the Pancit Lomi to serving plates or a large serving dish.
Garnish:
Garnish with fried garlic or garlic chips and additional green onions or fresh cilantro if desired.
Serve with lemon or calamansi wedges on the side for added flavor.
Tips and Variations:
Vegetable Additions: Add other vegetables such as mushrooms, cabbage, or snap peas for extra flavor and texture.
Protein Options: Substitute chicken with pork, shrimp, or tofu if preferred.
