CHICKEN PAD THAI
This chicken pad thai is a combination of diced cooked chicken, scrambled eggs, rice noodles, veggies and herbs, all tossed in a sweet and savory sauce.
I was able to find rice noodles in the ethnic section of my grocery store, and they were actually labeled as pad thai noodles.
I typically use boneless skinless chicken breasts that are cut up into small pieces and sautéed, but in a pinch you could also use shredded rotisserie chicken.
The sauce is mostly comprised of ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry, with the exception of the fish sauce.
Fish sauce is located in the ethnic foods aisle of most grocery stores and is really crucial to making this pad thai taste authentic!
I kept this pad thai pretty basic because that’s the way my favorite restaurant makes it, but you could easily substitute shrimp for the chicken or add in more veggies like broccoli, mushrooms and peppers.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs
- 8 ounces rice noodles
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1/4 cup green onions cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
- 1/4 cup roasted salted peanuts chopped
- 4 lime wedges
FOR THE SAUCE:
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
DIRECTIONS:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the ketchup, fish sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce and rice vinegar. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned and cooked through.
- Add the garlic to the pan and cook for 30 seconds.
- Move the chicken mixture to one side of the pan and add the eggs to the empty side of the pan. Stir the eggs until scrambled and cooked through, approximately 3 minutes.
- While the chicken and egg mixture is cooking, prepare rice noodles according to package directions.
- Add the rice noodles and sauce to the pan, toss to coat evenly.
- Stir in the green onions and bean sprouts.
- Sprinkle the peanuts and cilantro over the noodle mixture. Serve, garnished with lime wedges.
