Chicken Pad Thai

In Thailand, this is the ultimate street food. There, competition among food cart cooks is fierce, so many specialize in a dish or two just to stay in business. For those who are gluten sensitive, rice noodles are a great alternative to wheat.

Ingredients

Serves: Prep:  10min |Cook: 15min |Total: 25min
              

Directions

1.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles per the package directions.
2.
Combine the ketchup, fish sauce, and sugar in a small bowl. Heat 1 teaspoon of the peanut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the egg and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes or until set. Transfer the egg to a bowl and reserve.
3.
Return the skillet to the stove top and heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil. Add the chicken and cook, stirring often, for 4 to 5 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked through. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds longer. Stir in the noodles and cook for 1 minute longer or until hot. Add the ketchup mixture and cook, tossing, for 1 minute. Stir in the scallions and reserved egg and remove from the heat.
4.
Divide among 4 plates, garnishing each with 1/4 cup of the bean sprouts and sprinkling with the peanuts. Serve with the lime wedges, if desired.

Loved this meal...even my husband and kids enjoyed it. I will be adding this to our regular menu. Next time I'm going to add some fresh veggies to it.
