Fideo
Fideo, which means noodles in Spanish, is a Mexican pasta dish that can be eaten as a side dish or as a main course. It consists of fideo noodles, which are small vermicelli noodles, fried with onions and garlic. The noodles then get simmered in a tomato bouillon sauce with diced tomatoes. Once the noodles are softened, the fideo is ready to eat. It is typically made meatless, but you can add chicken, ground beef, or chorizo if you’d like.
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 2 bags fideo vermicelli
- 3 roma tomatoes diced
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 3 tbsp tomato bouillon with chicken seasoning
- 4 cups water
- 8 oz boneless skinless chicken breast or thigh (optional) diced
- 8 oz chorizo (optional)
Instructions
- Heat up oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Fry the noodles, onions, and garlic until golden brown.
- Pour in the water and the tomato bouillon.
- Add in the tomatoes. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed and the noodles are soft.
