#4: Charie Horne’s: Fluffy Lemon Squares (12 Servings)

Spread over crust; sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. Refrigerate 1 hour or until set.#5 Wendy Hamon’s Filipino Pancit Bihon (Chicken and Rice noodles)
Chop up:
10-15 large green beans – sliced thin diagonally
10-15 snow peas – sliced diagonally in half
1 small onion
2 carrots – sliced in thin slivers
1/4 head cabbage, sliced into thin strips
1/4 C red bell pepper, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
(Also will need Filipino Bihon rice noodles – 1 pkg, or a pkg of chinese rice noodles – which don’t seem to taste the same to us but will do if you can’t find a Filipino brand – and soy sauce, chicken bullion) Be sure you don’t get “canton” pancit noodles, you want “bihon.”
Boil 2 chicken breasts, bone-in, with skin until cooked through (about 10 minutes) – save water
-remove chicken to cool, then tear into thin strips. Do not cut – that would just be wrong ![]()
In Wok:
Fry garlic and onion in ~ 1/8 C veg. oil, and slowly add carrots, green beans, and cabbage, stir frying each about 1-2 minutes before adding the next. Add the chicken pieces, plus soy sauce (from 3-5 T ~) plus 1 t. salt and some pepper. Mix ingredients well.
Remove 1/2 of mixture to a bowl while you cook the noodles in remaining veg. mixture (it is too much work to mix in the noodles with all the vegetables in the wok!) Add about 4 C of chicken water (usually the water you boiled chicken in is less than this – so just add hot water to it) and 1 lg. chicken bullion.
Rinse the bihon noodles briefly under running cold water then place in wok. They will loosen up quickly. These noodles barely swell at all – so you will be able to easily guage how much you will end up with. They only take about 5 minutes to cook, or less. Sorry, if you get chinese rice noodles, the pkg size could be lg or small… but Filipino brand usually is only one size… smaller than a loaf of bread if you’re wondering.
Filipinos do not measure like we Americans.
After noodles are completely mixed in, add the remaining vegetable mix you’d removed, plus the slivered red bell pepper. Add more salt and soy sauce to taste and serve. Unlike other Filipino dishes, Pancit is not served with rice.
Enjoy! Wendy
