The Method

Stir in the sate paste and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, fish sauce (if using), and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
5
Add the carrots, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the pot and cook for 5 minutes, until slightly softened.
6
Add the rice noodles and bok choy to the pot and cook according to package directions, usually about 3-5 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.

Chef's Tips

Adjust the amount of sate paste to your desired level of spiciness.

For a richer broth, use homemade chicken broth.

Feel free to substitute your favorite vegetables. Broccoli, snap peas, and bean sprouts would also be delicious.

If you don't have fish sauce, you can omit it or add a pinch of salt.

To prevent the noodles from overcooking, add them at the very end and cook just until tender.
