Pad Thai Recipe

Step 1

Prep the Noodles. Soak the dried rice noodles for 1 hour in room temperature water, or until the noodles become pliable (or soak them 5-7 minutes, then boil for 10 minutes). Refer to your packaging directions for preparation to cook them through as needed.

Step 2

Prep the Ingredients. Set up 5 bowls and add the ingredients into the bowls as listed above. Prepping makes the recipe much easier.

Step 3

Make the Pad Thai Sauce (Bowl 1). Whisk together the sauce ingredients in a small bowl until well combined and set aside.

Step 4

Cook the Shrimp (Bowl 2). Heat a large wok to medium heat. Toss the shrimp in bowl 2 with oil and salt, then add to the wok. Stir fry for 1-2 minutes, or until the shrimp is partially cooked through (they will continue to cook as we continue). Push the shrimp aside in the pan.

Step 5

Add Bowl Stir in the contents of the 3rd bowl and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, until the garlic becomes fragrant. Push the ingredients to the side of the pan.

Step 6

Add Bowl Add more oil if needed, stir in the eggs. Cook, stirring for 2-3 minutes, until the eggs are cooked and mixed with the ingredients.

Step 7

Sauce and Noodles. Stir in the Pad Thai sauce and prepped rice noodles. Stir to coat the noodles with the sauce.

Step 8

Add Bowl Stir in the contents of the 5th bowl. Toss to combine.

Step 9

Garnish with extra bean sprouts, roasted peanuts, chili flakes, and serve.
