I need to find the recipe for Pei Wei’s Pad Thai Chicken!
I never, under any circumstances, ever, ate tofu. But after having this Thai Chicken (not knowing there was tofu…my sister ordered for us) I crave their tofu. I still wont buy the stuff, but Pei Wei really knows how to make it! …
The eggs are my second favorite thing about this dish!
Extra egg please!
And have you ever had Cheesecake Factory’s Thai Chicken Pasta dish? To die for! They sell their sauce, and I’m pretty sure I need that in my stocking!
Now whenever I see a recipe for Thai Chicken I have to look at it…well last night, instead of looking at a new recipe, I made it!
Good for me! Right?
Pad Thai Chicken
|
| Recipe adapted from Blog is the New Black |
Ingredients:
-
Chicken – I used Costco’s…I know, I know, I always do that. Oh well 🙂
-
2 minced garlic cloves
-
4T soy sauce, seperated
-
8 ounces egg noodles
-
3T Peanut Butter
-
2 tbsp lime juice
-
2 tsp vegetable oil
-
3 large eggs, light beaten
-
2 tbsp brown sugar
-
1/4 cup chopped roasted, salted peanuts
Directions:
-
Cook your chicken…in my case, I warmed my chicken on the stove, and added 3T soy sauce.
-
Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, lime juice, and 1T soy sauce
-
In a large nonstick skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
-
Add garlic stirring constantly, until fragrant. Add eggs, stirring gently and constantly, until scrambled.
-
Add noodles and sauce to skillet, and toss until coated. Add chicken and continue to toss.
-
Remove from heat and garnish with peanuts.
(Optional: Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges. I didn’t have any fresh lime and I don’t love cilantro)
NEXT TIME:
I’m going to use less soy sauce (I even used way less then the original recipe called for)
I like more of a peanut taste, so I’ll add more peanut butter

you should also try making it with rice noodles. You need extra time to prep, but rice noodles are SO yummy!
looks so tasty....Feel like having a bite now..
Thanks a lot for linking with Midweek Fiesta
Oh! Have never made this. Looks easy enough! Thanks for linking up to Project Pinterest! Sarah:)
@ Jenn let me know what you think when you make it
I have been wanting to try Pei Wei, because everyone says it is so yummy. Your dish sounds good, even though peanut butter and lime sounds like an interesting combo, but sometimes those weird combos turn out to be the best!
