Directions

Step 1

Rinse shirataki noodles under cold water for 1-2 minutes to remove their natural odor. Set aside to drain thoroughly.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 3

Add the sliced chicken breast to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink.

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp turns pink and opaque.

Step 5

Pour in the soy sauce and chicken broth. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Add the shredded cabbage, julienned carrots, and chopped green beans. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

Step 7

Add the shirataki noodles to the skillet, tossing them with the meat and vegetables to combine well.

Step 8

Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and excess moisture to evaporate.

Step 9

Garnish the pancit with sliced green onions before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for an added citrus kick.
