If you are looking for how to cook Mie Goreng Chicken, here is a step by step guide inspired by the Jackson Lily’s kitchen.
1. Prepare the Ingredients
Preparation is key for a flavorful wok fried noodle dish.
- 1. Shred BBQ chicken into bite sized pieces.
2. Prepare the chicken satay and set aside.
3. Fry one egg, sunny side up.
4. Have sambal and chicken skin chips ready for finishing.
5. Blanch the noodles briefly if needed, then drain well.
Having everything ready ensures quick cooking over high heat.
2. Cook the Aromatics
1. Heat oil in a wok over high heat.
2. Sauté garlic and shallots until fragrant.
High heat gives the chicken that slightly smoky flavor that defines great Mie Goreng.
3. Add the Chicken and Noodles
1. Add the BBQ chicken and cook until lightly caramelized.
2. Add the noodles and toss everything together.
Stir fry quickly to prevent the noodles from becoming soggy.
4. Season and Build Flavor
1. Add sweet soy sauce and a spoon of sambal for heat.
2. Toss until the noodles are evenly coated and slightly caramelized.
The combination of sweet soy and sambal creates the signature Indonesian flavor profile of Mie Goreng Chicken.
5. Plate and Finish the Jackson Lily’s Way
To serve it like Jackson Lily’s:
● Top the noodles with the sunny side up egg & grilled chicken satay.
● Serve extra sambal and vegetable pickle (acar) on the side.
