This shortcut Mexican fideos recipe is simple, quick, and delicious. It's great as a light meal or side dish. There are many ways to prepare fideos but for me, this is the quickest. When you add the chicken stock, you can add some tomato sauce and a dash of cumin for extra flavor. Add less water if you want drier pasta.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 tablespoons minced onion
- 7 ounces vermicelli pasta
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 cubess tomato-flavored bouillon
Instructions
