If you're looking for a flavorful and satisfying meal, you can't go wrong with Pad Thai. This classic Thai dish is made with rice noodles, shrimp, tofu, peanuts, and a sweet and sour sauce that will tantalize your taste buds. Here's how to make this delicious dish:
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. rice noodles
- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1/2 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup firm tofu, diced
- 1/4 cup peanuts, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup bean sprouts
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
Begin by soaking the rice noodles in warm water for about 15 minutes, or until they are soft and pliable. Drain the noodles and set them aside.
In a wok or large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the shrimp and tofu and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
Push the shrimp and tofu to one side of the wok or skillet, and add the beaten egg to the other side. Scramble the egg until it is cooked through, then mix it in with the shrimp and tofu.
Add the drained rice noodles to the wok or skillet, along with the green onions, peanuts, and bean sprouts. Stir-fry everything together for about 2-3 minutes, or until the noodles are heated through and the vegetables are tender.
Drizzle the sweet and sour sauce over the top of the noodles, and toss everything together until well coated.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious Pad Thai!
