Roast Chicken Noodles

by:




I live in a household of two. Two people can't eat a whole roast chicken in one sitting. I mean, we have friends over frequently but sometimes I want a roast and when there is only two of you you're going to have leftovers. And leftovers are what these noodles are all about. Leftovers and flavour! Because there's no point in trying not to waste things if it's not going to taste good. You could buy a roast chicken to use in this if you can't be bothered making your own! You could also use leftover grilled or poached chicken. Feel free to use any vegetables you have on hand that are similar. If you don't have lemongrass then just stick with the ginger, but only omit one or the other. You can easily double this recipe if you're cooking for more people or just want leftovers (from your leftovers - you thrifty thing you). But I would recommend prepping all ingredients then cooking in 2 person batches as you don't want to crowd the pan. The noodles can be replaced with whatever your preference is, rice noodles would work well, so would buckwheat soba. Basically you can make any number of variations of this to suit your tastes and what's in your fridge. It's meant to be one of those meals that uses up things that might otherwise go to waste.
