Steps

In a wok or a large deep skillet over medium heat, add oil and chicken and cook until tender. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the garlic and onion and cook for 2 minutes.

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and season with a little salt and pepper. Stir in the veggies and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until they have begun to soften.

Add all the ingredients for the pancit sauce and bring to a boil.

Once the sauce is boiling, add the rice noodles and stir until all the noodles are coated with the sauce. Keep on stirring and cooking until the noodles are tender (3 to 4 minutes). Add more stock (or water) if the dish is dry.

Season with salt and pepper and more soy sauce if necessary. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
