📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Soak the rice noodles in warm water for approximately 15 minutes or until soft. Drain and set aside.

2

In a small bowl, mix the fish sauce, tamarind paste, brown sugar, soy sauce, and chili flakes to prepare the sauce.

3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken and stir-fry until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

4

Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Add minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

5

Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until they are just set.

6

Add the soaked and drained rice noodles to the pan along with the sauce, mixing well to combine.

7

Return the cooked chicken to the pan and toss everything together. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce.

8

Add the bean sprouts and chopped spring onions, tossing them with the noodles for about 1 minute, just to heat them through but keeping them crisp.

9

Transfer the Pad Thai to serving plates and garnish with crushed peanuts. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.

Enjoy your homemade Pad Thai Chicken!
