Welcome to the delicious world of Okazuya Long Rice! This traditional Japanese dish is a mouth-watering blend of vermicelli noodles, tender chicken, and aromatic green onions and ginger.
Begin by boiling the chicken in the chicken broth for about 10-12 minutes or until fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool before shredding it with a fork.
In a separate saucepan, cook the vermicelli noodles according to package instructions.
Once cooked, drain the noodles and set them aside.
In a large saucepan, heat the chicken broth over medium-high heat.
Add the shredded chicken to the broth and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Add the cooked vermicelli noodles to the broth and stir well.
Chop the green onions and ginger into small pieces and add them on top of the noodle mixture.
Let everything simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Serve hot and enjoy this delicious Okazuya Long Rice!
Notes
To add more flavor to your chicken, marinate it in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic before boiling it in the broth.
For a vegetarian option, you can substitute the chicken with tofu and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
For added texture, you can top the dish with some crispy fried onions or sesame seeds.
If you prepare this dish in advance, make sure to keep the noodles and broth separate until ready to serve. This will prevent the noodles from becoming too soggy.
