Ingredients

1 10 oz package of frozen spinach1/2 onion, diced1 clove of garlic, finely chopped1 lemon (used for juice and zest)2 32 oz cartons of chicken broth or stock (low sodium may be used)2 tsp Sriracha hot chili sauce2 tbsp of black pepper2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (approx. 4 to 4.5 oz each)1 package of rice sticks or rice noodles

Directions

Start by partially defrosting the frozen chopped spinach in the microwave. It does not have to be completely thawed. Just enough to be able to break into clumps. Dice 1/2 of a medium onion, add to a soup pot lightly coated with cooking spray, and saute. Finely chop and add the clove of garlic after the onions have become translucent. Let the garlic heat for a minute or so. Just when you start to smell the garlic add the 8 cups (2 cartons) of chicken broth. Add the black pepper, Sriracha sauce, freshly squeezed lemon, lemon zest, and increase the heat to bring to a low boil. Trim and add the chicken breasts to the pot and boil for 15 minutes. While the chicken boils take out 2 of the 3 bundles of rice sticks (save the third bundle for another recipe) from their package and with kitchen scissors cut each bundle in half. When the chicken is done boiling remove the breasts and place them on a plate to rest. Turn off the burner and add the noodles and the spinach to the stock to let them soak for 10 minutes. After the chicken has rested for 5 minutes cut each breast into 3 strips and then shred each strip removing any undesired fat or tendons. Add the shredded chicken to the noodles once the 10 minute soak is up and enjoy!

Lumpia or Filipino Egg Roll

This is one type of Lumpia (Tagalog for Eggroll-it's a Filipino Eggroll). I prefer using Ground Beef and Ground Pork but you can use the Ground Chicken or Ground Turkey along with the Pork also. I DO NOT COOK MY MEAT AND VEGGIES I prefer to mix them together in a bowl with the seasonings and then roll them in the Lumpia to a somewhat small size then deep fry them. They are more flavorful that way. You can cook it if you want to but it may not come out as well. I also prefer to use Chinese Yard Long Pole Beans cut into small diagonal pieces instead of regular Green Beans. I also use MSG in some of my cooking or otherwise known as Accent. It does help to bring flavors out in your cooking, but, this is optional for anyone else but me. I do not use regular Egg Roll Wraps. I prefer to use Lumpia Wraps(o'tasty spring roll wraps is the commercial name for them in the stores) which are larger and come in crepe thin slices. I also prefer to seal my wrappers with raw egg. It comes out better that way but you can use water-flour paste also. I also prefer to cut my veggies into tiny matchstick pieces. It's better that way in the Lumpia but you can do it anyway you want. For a dipping sauce you can use the Lumpia Sauce recipe below but in mine I turn it into a Sweet and Sour Sauce by making Annatto Water and adding 1/3 cup to the recipe instead of water, and 1/4 c crushed pineapples in juice. You can also mix in bits of bell pepper if you like. This is the Annatto Water recipe aka Achiote Water also: In a small heavy saucepan, heat the water over medium heat. Add the annatto seeds and cook, stirring constantly, until the water becomes a rich, orange-red color, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Strain the water into a jar, discarding the seeds, and keep covered in the refrigerator. You can do the same thing using Oil to make Annatto Oil. I also prefer to use just the soy sauce and about 1/4 vinegar mixed with fresh, not cooked, garlic and onion diced up and crushed with a bit of black pepper or chili peppers crushed in as a dipping sauce. I also like to use 1/4 Fish Sauce(Patis) mixed with 1/2 Lemon or Lime Juice for dipping also.
