A quick and delicious Chicken Pad Thai recipe featuring chewy rice noodles, tender chicken, and vibrant vegetables, all tossed in a flavorful sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz rice noodles
  • 1 lb chicken breast, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Crushed peanuts and lime wedges for garnish

Instructions

  1. Soak the rice noodles in hot water for about 20 minutes until they’re soft, then drain them. Make sure they don’t stick together!
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the minced garlic and sliced chicken. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Stir often so it doesn’t stick.
  4. Push the chicken to one side of the pan and pour the beaten eggs into the other side. Scramble them until fully cooked.
  5. Toss in the soaked noodles along with the fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and lime juice. Don’t rush this step! Toss everything together thoroughly.
  6. Stir in the bean sprouts, sliced bell pepper, and chopped green onions. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with crushed peanuts and lime wedges.
