Instructions
Heat a pan over medium heat. Pour the oil and fry the squid ball until lightly brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
On the same pan, sauté the onion and garlic until the onions are translucent. Add the chicken, continue to sauté until the chicken is tender. Add the kikiam and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Add the shrimp and put back the squid balls. Put the soy sauce and oyster sauce, stir until well blended. Add the carrots, red bell pepper, celery and snow peas and chicken stocks. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add the cabbage and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Using slatted spoon, remove and transfer the meat-vegetables in a bowl. Leave the liquid in pan then season with salt and pepper.
Add the noodles and gently push it down to the liquid so it will absorb the flavor. Cook for 5 minutes while stirring occasionally. Add more water if necessary.
Put back the meat-vegetable mixture and stir until well combined. Transfer in a serving plate and serve with lime or calamansi on the side.
