Green Ginger Rice Noodles
Recipe video above. Rice noodles tossed in a ginger-forward, "Asian-pesto" sauce that’s based on Hainanese Chicken’s Ginger Shallot Sauce. Crazy good, fast, and it even turns the noodles green which I’m weirdly obsessed with. I threw in some shredded chicken for protein to make it a meal. Cucumber would be so great to make this a refreshing side dish (deseeded, batons or thin half-moons).Serve it warm or cold. It’s a total win for hot days, lunch boxes, or whenever you’re doing an Asian-ish spread. I see myself making this A LOT this summer!

Ginger shallot sauce first:
4
Blitz - Put 1/4 of the green onions in a tall jug (or deep bowl), top with the ginger, garlic, vinegar and water. Blitz with a stick blender until the ginger and garlic is pureed (~ ⏱️ 15 seconds). Add the remaining green onions and soy sauce. Blitz until all the green onion is finely chopped but don't let it become green smoothie, it should be a pesto-like consistency. Asian pesto! :) (Note 4 if you don't have a stick blender)

5
Stir and set aside - Stir in the oil, salt and pepper. Then set aside for ⏱️ 10 minutes to let the flavours meld while you rehydrate the noodles.
6
Toss and eat!
7
Toss the noodles with the Green Ginger Sauce first. Toss well so it coats the noodles nicely. Then add the chicken, toss well again. (If you add chicken first, too much sauce clings to it). Loosen with a touch of water if needed.

Warm or cold serving - If serving the noodles cold, set aside for ⏱️ 15 minutes+ to let the noodles cool. The flavours will continue to develop. If serving warm, serve straight away.
