Ingredients

• 8 oz Gluten-free wide rice noodles
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 pieces Fresh red chili, sliced
• 1 lb Boneless chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 2 pieces Bell peppers, sliced
• 1 large Onion, sliced
• 1 cup Bamboo shoots
• 3 tbsp Gluten-free tamari sauce
• 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp Fish sauce
• 2 tsp Dark soy sauce
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 1 cup Fresh Thai basil leaves
• 2 pieces Lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

Soak the gluten-free rice noodles in hot water for about 5-7 minutes or until they are softened but still slightly firm to the bite. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and sliced red chili, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the sliced chicken breast to the wok and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 5

Add the bell peppers, onion, and bamboo shoots to the wok, stir-frying for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the gluten-free tamari sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, dark soy sauce, and sugar.

Step 7

Once the vegetables are ready, add the drained noodles to the wok along with the sauce mixture. Toss everything together until the noodles are well-coated and heated through.

Step 8

Stir in the fresh Thai basil leaves, tossing until just wilted.

Step 9

Remove from heat and serve hot, garnished with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish.
