Perfect for a comforting meal, this dish is a celebration of authentic flavors and textures.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, thinly sliced
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 8 oz rice noodles
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups bean sprouts
- A handful of fresh basil leaves
- Lime wedges for serving
- Sriracha and hoisin sauce for serving
- 2 star anise pods
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1-inch piece ginger, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro leaves (for garnish)
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a wok over medium heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then add them to the wok. Sear the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the wok and set it aside.
- In the same wok, add the sliced onion, ginger, and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the aromatics release their fragrance.
- To the wok, add the chicken broth, star anise pods, and cinnamon stick. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing the spices to infuse the broth with their warm, aromatic flavors.
- While the broth simmers, prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions in a separate pot. Drain and rinse the noodles in cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent them from sticking.
- Add the fish sauce to the broth for an umami depth of flavor. Let the broth simmer gently for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- To assemble the pho, divide the cooked rice noodles among bowls. Top with the seared chicken slices.
- Carefully ladle the hot, spiced broth over the noodles and chicken in each bowl. The broth should be hot enough to further soften the noodles and bring the entire dish together.
- Garnish each bowl with bean sprouts, fresh basil leaves, chopped green onions, cilantro leaves, and jalapeño slices if desired. The freshness of the herbs and the crunch of the bean sprouts complement the rich broth and tender chicken.
- Serve the pho with lime wedges on the side, allowing each person to add a squeeze of lime juice for a bright, citrusy accent.
- Offer Sriracha and hoisin sauce for individual seasoning, letting diners customize their bowl to their liking with a balance of spicy and sweet flavors.
- Enjoy the Wok-Fired Chicken and Vegetable Pho as a nourishing, flavorful meal that warms the soul. It's a dish that is both comforting and invigorating, perfect for any day of the year.
- This dish is not only a feast for the palate but also for the eyes, with its vibrant colors and steamy broth making it a visually appealing meal.
- The Wok-Fired Chicken and Vegetable Pho can be customized according to personal preferences. Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, snow peas, or bok choy for an extra nutritional boost.
- This recipe is ideal for a family dinner or a cozy gathering with friends, bringing a touch of Vietnamese culinary tradition to your table.
- Leftover pho can be stored in the refrigerator, with the broth and toppings stored separately to maintain the best texture and flavor.
