Pancit is a traditional Filipino stir-fry made with tender chicken, carrots, cabbage, and thin pancit noodles. The delicate rice noodles and savory sauce have made this meal a favorite for generations.

This easy pancit recipe comes together quickly and is the perfect weeknight meal for your family. My kids absolutely love these noodles, and any time I make stir fry they request pancit noodles.

What is Pancit?

Pancit is a popular noodle dish in Filipino cuisine packed with veggies, meat, and salty savory flavors. This one-pot meal is fast, easy, and packed with lots of flavors. Every Filipino family has their own special recipe and variation of how they make their pancit noodles. This dish is so versatile, and it can be made to your liking. There are so many different versions of pancit recipes and some versions also contain pork or shrimp. You choose any combination of veggies you would like as well.

Noodles were first introduced to the Philippines by Chinese immigrants centuries ago. There are different types of pancit noodles. I used bihon noodles in my pancit recipe which are thin rice noodles. Another common noodle used in the Phillippines for this recipe is canton pancit noodles which are egg noodles. The influence of Chinese cuisine is known throughout the world. Here are a few of my favorite Chinese recipes you have to try. This fried rice and these classic egg rolls pair perfectly with my sweet and sour pork. Make these recipes for your next Sunday dinner!

Ingredients Needed for Pancit Noodles

Because this is a Filipino recipe the noodles are specific and unique. I found my bihon noodles at an Asian market, but feel free to use any package of rice vermicelli, or angel hair noodles. The rest of the ingredients are easy to find and you may already have them on hand. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

  • Pancit Bihon Noodles: You will love these delicate and light-textured noodles.
  • Canola Oil: Oil helps cook the chicken and veggies in the wok.
  • Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts: I prefer chicken, but feel free to use pork or shrimp.
  • Onion: Adds great flavor.
  • Garlic: Fresh garlic always.
  • Soy Sauce: Adds moisture and salty flavors.
  • Water: Adds moisture to the sauce.
  • Chicken Boullion: I prefer bullion because it has much more flavor than chicken broth. Use powdered or paste bullion. I like to whisk it in the water before adding.
  • Cabbage: Fresh green cabbage is traditional and adds texture to this pancit recipe.
  • Carrots: I like to use pre-shredded carrots because it’s so convenient.
  • Green Onions: Adds great flavor and I love the added pop of color.
  • Kosher Salt and Cracked Black Pepper: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
