Ingredients
Recipe adapted from one on FreshOffTheGrid.com
- 7 oz Pad Thai noodles
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 large chicken breast
- 1 small onion
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- ⅔ c. Pad Thai sauce, recipe below
- 6 green onions
- 1 bunch of cilantro
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts
- 1 lime
- Bean sprouts for topping
Pad Thai Sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce or Sriracha
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
Instructions:
- Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a resealable bottle and shake to combine. Set aside and allow the ingredients to marry.
- Wash and dry all of your produce and herbs.
- Carefully dice the onion and slice the green onions thinly until you have about a half a cup, separate the whites from the greens. Then chop the cilantro; you’llneed about 1/4 cup.
- Cut the chicken breast into bite-size cubes.
- Start by building a strong fire and setting a pot on to boil. Once the water is boiling, remove it from the heat and submerge the pad Thai noodles. They will need to soak for 8 to 10 minutes.
- While the noodles are soaking, heat a drizzle of sesame oil in a skillet over the fire. Once the oil is hot enough to pop, when sprinkled with water, toss in the chicken, chopped onions, green onion whites, and season with a pinch of salt.
- Sauté the chicken until cooked through, and the onions are translucent and beginning to brown.
- Next, move the chicken and onions to one side and crack the eggs into the skillet. Cook until scrambled, stirring frequently.
- When the noodles are cooked through and al dente, use tongs to remove the noodles from the water and add them to the skillet.
- Move the chicken to one side of the pan, lower the heat, then add the eggs to the skillet, stirring them frequently to scramble.
- When the noodles are done soaking, remove them from the pot with tongs and add to the skillet along with the eggs, chicken, and onions.
- Dump the Pad Thai sauce over the top of the noodles and stir to cook thoroughly.
- Serve hot and top with the green onion greens, cilantro, chopped peanuts, a wedge of lime, and fresh bean sprouts.
