How to Cook Longevity Noodle with Chicken and Mushroom

The cooking process requires boiling the chicken breasts and fresh noodles before stir-frying. This is where the flavors are infused on the noodles.

How to Cook Longevity Noodles with Chicken and Mushroom

Start by boiling water in a pot or wok. The chicken breasts are boiled first until it gets completely cooked and tender. This takes around 15 to 18 minutes. I add a piece of Knorr Chicken Cube in the middle of the process. This makes the broth really flavorful.


Add the fresh noodles after removing the chicken breasts from the wok. Cook for 8 minutes. The noodles will absorb the broth and all its flavors making it very tasty. Make sure to place the noodles in a colander after cooking and wash with running cold water. This stops the cooking process and prevents the noodles from sticking to each other.

This is the part where stir-frying starts. Heat oil in a wok. Stir-fry the sliced chicken quickly. Add scallions and mushroom. I am using dried Shiitake mushrooms for this recipe. It helps bring-in flavor to the dish.

Tip: Make sure to prepare the mushroom before cooking by soaking I hot water for 15 minutes. Slice the mushroom once it becomes soft. Soak longer if needed. Otherwise, it will be a challenge to slice it.

Add Shaoxing cooking wine. You may also use dry sherry as a substitute. This gives the dish a nice unique taste. The carrots and chives are added next. I’m using Chinese chive for this recipe. It has that nice mild garlicky flavor that blends well with the other ingredients.

Add Oyster sauce and ½ cup water. Stir and let boil. This is the point when we add the noodles. Simply toss to blend with the ingredients. Season with ground black pepper.
