Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon roasted peanut oil
  2. 2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
  3. 1 large red onion, finely diced
  4. 1 pound ground chicken
  5. 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
  6. 2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce (such as sambal oelek)
  7. Kosher salt
  8. 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  9. 1/2 bunch mustard greens, leaves torn
  10. 6 ounces rice vermicelli noodles
  11. 1/4 cup finely chopped pickled ginger
  12. Chopped salted peanuts and fresh cilantro, for topping

Instructions

  1. Heat the peanut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the fresh ginger and all but 1/4 cup of the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ground chicken, turmeric, chili-garlic sauce and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, breaking up the meat, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the chicken broth and mustard greens (the pot will be very full, but the greens will wilt quickly). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the broth has reduced slightly and the greens are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil; remove from the heat and add the vermicelli noodles, stirring to separate them. Let the noodles soak until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and shake dry. Use kitchen shears to cut the noodles into smaller pieces.
  3. Divide the pickled ginger, noodles and chicken-broth mixture among bowls. Top with peanuts, cilantro and the reserved red onion; season with salt.

I thought this recipe was only ok. I’ve made some fantastic recipes from Food Network. This one was a little bland to me.

“Bunch” is not an easily comprehensible amount.
Courtney Moon
Really delicious! I added extra chili garlic sauce for a kick. It has been added into our food rotation!
