Pancit Canton at Bihon Recipe

Pancit Canton at Bihon is a Filipino noodle dish composed of two of my favorite noodles: pancit canton (flour noodles), and pancit bihon (rice noodles). It is somewhat similar to Bam-I, which is a popular pancit version in Cebu and the Visayas region.

I consider this pancit version special, not only because of the noodles, but also with the medley of other ingredients. It has both pork and chicken, and there are also pan-fried shrimp added to it — not to mention the combination of different vegetables. It is amazing.

In addition, I also like the idea that this can be prepared quickly. Yes, it can still be considered as a short order. Provided that the shredded chicken is prepared beforehand, Pancit Canton at Bihon can be cooked in less than 30 minutes. This means that you can quickly make it in a spur of the moment when ingredients are available.

This is good to make in any occasion. As mentioned, you can cook this on regular days, or for  special events such as birthdays or potluck parties. This this will not disappoint.
