Description

Not quite Pad Thai, not quite Pad See Ew, but don’t let this dish fool you; it’s still full of the flavor you love! Go ahead, overindulge.


Scale

Ingredients

  • 14 oz chicken breast
  • 8 medium eggs
  • 26 oz Pad Thai brown rice noodles
  • 8 cups kale (chopped)
  • 4 large carrots (chopped into rings)
  • 4 tbsp garlic (minced; about 5 large cloves)
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 cup Tangy Thai Sauce

Instructions

  1. Chop up veggies. As for the kale, I cheat and buy it already chopped! My favorite is the Tuscan kale at Trader Joe’s. And yes, you guessed it, it’s already washed. The less leafy greens I have to wash the better #petpeeve.
  2. Cut chicken into cubes.
  3. Put rice noodles in stainless steel bowl.
  4. Boil water in a kettle. Once boiled, pour hot water into noodle bowl and stir to ensure all noodles soften, but don’t stick. This should take about 1 or 2 minutes. Don’t leave the noodles in the water for too long. You’ll want the noodles “al dente” so they hold up later.
  5. Now is a good time to make your Tangy Thai Sauce (see ingredient list for link to recipe).
  6. Heat oil in a large pot.
  7. Add chicken and garlic and stir until chicken is seared evenly (about 5-10 min).
  8. Add the carrots and kale. Stir it up for about 5 minutes. You want the veggies to soften a bit, but not too much.
  9. Cook the eggs in a separate skillet with a dash or two of salt. Add eggs to Pad See Thai mix.
  10. Add the noodles back into the pot along with Tangy Thai Sauce. Mix everything together. The noodles might break apart – unfortunately, that’s what happens with brown rice noodles, but it will still taste good. Promise.

Notes

Make it vegan: substitute chicken with tofu or veggies (broccoli or broccolini, 1 bunch for every 2 people, or green/red bell peppers: 2 of ea for this quantity) and omit eggs.

Use organic ingredients whenever possible.

Remember that cooking time is reduced if you are making this recipe for less people.
