Our perfect lunch today is composed of Shrimp Pancit Canton and nothing else. This noodle dish can stand on its own in terms of overall flavor and satisfaction, as far as I am concerned. It is simple, delicious, and can provide you with the necessary energy that you need to continue what you have started for the day.

Shrimp Pancit Canton

I made this Shrimp Pancit Canton because I wanted to use all the ingredients that I have in the fridge, without the need to buy extra ingredients. I guess that I want to show you that you can build a successful dish by just using whatever is available in your kitchen – as long as there are enough left and that you are using these ingredients properly.

I remember using a lot of bell peppers every time I prepare crispy noodles. Since I got plenty of it, I thought of using them for this recipe. I still have an extra pack of flour sticks (pancit canton), but making crispy noodles is not my intention. I only wanted one simple dish – a Pancit Canton using whatever I have in the kitchen. This goal led me to make this Shrimp Pancit Canton. By the way, it should have been past tense in the time of writing since it is nowhere in sight (and that was only 20 minutes ago). It must have been good. I know it was, and everyone in the household will surely agree.

On the side note, I found a cute little bunny in the yard. He is injured, so I took him home for the night to care for him and to keep him warm because it was still in the mid 50’s tonight. He was motionless when I got him and I was afraid that the he might be a prey to the owls nearby. I am hopeful that the bunny will get stronger by tomorrow. My kids (including the little ones) took good care of the bunny.

Going back to this Shrimp Pancit Canton Recipe – I thought that some fish sauce with lemon works well. I was thinking of having the same meal for merienda, but it was nowhere in sight.

Try this Shrimp Pancit Canton Recipe. Cheers!
