Singapore is known to be the hub of many cultures and many of their dishes today have been influenced by many different types of foreigners over the centuries.

Some like them with meat such as shrimp, chicken, pork or beef. And others like it purely vegetarian, which is good also.
This dish is also very easy to prepare and can be ready to serve in under 30 minutes.
I used to order this often from my local Chinese restaurant, now I make it myself.
Singapore noodles are made with vermicelli rice noodles, chicken breasts and seasoned with curry powder, and some other popular Asian ingredients.
You will want to start with sauteing the chicken first, and meanwhile soaking the vermicelli noodles around the same time.
Preparing the vegetables ahead of time, and setting aside when you’re ready to make the dish.
The fantastic flavors of this dish is what has made it so popular all across singapore and now internationally.
The balance of flavors is so good here, and even though we are adding minced red chili paste for a little heat.
You will hardly notice it since the balance of the other flavors mellows it out nicely, so don’t be afraid to add that heat.
Feel like adding shrimp, go ahead it’s your dinner after all!
I don’t know about you but this vegetable mixture is perfect, some people like to add red peppers but that is so wrong if you ask me.
The varieties of vermicelli rice noodles are endless, so choose your favorite brand and let’s get to cooking this delicious recipe!
You may want to add more soya sauce near the end, stir everything together well and taste before adjusting the flavor.
Looking for some added heat? Simply add in more of the minced chili paste, but be careful you only want a little more, it’s hot stuff.

Making this Black Bean Beef Stir fry is easy because it uses a pre-made sauce. There are a few pre-made black bean sauces on the market. My favorite is Lee Kum Kee Black Bean Garlic Sauce.
WHAT IS BLACK BEAN CHICKEN
It is a popular Chinese dish that has marinated chicken and vegetables all cooked together in fermented black bean sauce.
My dish here is made with red and green peppers, onions and chicken and then is tossed in a tasty black bean sauce.
I don’t know about you but this vegetable mixture is perfect, however you can add mushrooms, broccoli or snow peas if you like too!
HOW TO MAKE BLACK BEAN CHICKEN
You will want to start by cooking your rice, and then marinating your chicken.
Because the rest takes less than 15 minutes. I like to use a mini rice cooker, just set it and forget it.
Start by marinating he chicken first in water and cornstarch mixture then fry it in oil over medium heat just enough to cook it.
Next remove it from the wok/pan to sauté the vegetables in a black bean sauce mixture for a while.
Just before adding back together with the cooked chicken sauté all together for a few minutes before serving. Pretty easy huh!
This delicious and authentic stir fry takes less than 30 minutes to make too, so what are you waiting for.
Follow along for a mouthwatering dinner that everyone is sure to love.
Then simply chop up all the vegetables and cook according to the instructions below.
The fantastic flavors of garlic and black bean sauce gives this dish it’s amazing flavor, and the cornstarch helps to thicken it up just right.
Even though there is garlic already in the black bean sauce, it is still nice to add 2 more cloves.
You will hardly notice it since the balance of the other flavors mellows it out nicely, so don’t be afraid to add more garlic.

HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN RAMEN NOODLES
Start by cooking the noodles, to do that add them to a large pot of boiling water. Cook according to package instructions, with dry noodles it’s typically 5 minutes.
Meanwhile add all your sauce ingredients to a medium sized bowl and whisk to combine.
On a large chopping board, chop the broccoli into bite size pieces along with the cabbage.
On another cutting board dice the chicken breasts.
Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and marinade in the fridge for 15 minutes!
Once the noodles have cooked remove them from the water, strain and set aside.
Now is the time to make those noodles a bit crispy. Simply add 2 tbsp of sesame oil in a large frying pan along with the olive or cooking oil and saute those cooked noodles on each side till slightly crispy and browned to your liking.
Remove and plate.
In the same pan/pot/wok add the marinated chicken and stir fry till cooked, pour in the remaining marinade along with chopped ginger and garlic.
Saute for 2 minutes before adding in all the chopped vegetables, simmer on medium heat for roughly 5 minutes, tossing often until the vegetables are crispy yet tender.
Serve over the noodles hot and enjoy!
HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN RAMEN SPICY
You can make this dish as spicy as you like by simply adding in more or less of the “red pepper chili paste”. Chili paste can be found in almost every ethnic isle in your local grocery.
