Best Easy Chicken Sriracha Pad Thai Recipes

CHICKEN PAD THAI

Steps:

• For the noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
• For the sauce: Stir together the fish sauce, brown sugar, tamarind, sriracha and lime juice in a small bowl until well combined.
• For the stir fry: Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Push the tofu to the side, allowing the excess oil to drip down into the middle of the skillet. Add the chicken and shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is opaque and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Push to the side with the tofu, allowing the excess oil to drip down into the middle of the skillet. Add the beaten egg to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally and chopping to break up, until cooked through, about 30 seconds. Push the egg to the side with the tofu and chicken. Add the peppers to the skillet and cook just to soften slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the noodles, bean sprouts, scallions and sauce to the skillet. Combine the tofu, chicken and egg into the ingredients and stir fry, coating the ingredients with the sauce, and simmer to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Pile the stir fry onto a serving plate and top with chopped peanuts and cilantro leaves. Serve immediately with lime wedges.

• Cook rice noodles according to package directions, drain, rinse under cold water; set aside.

SRIRACHA ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk Sriracha chile sauce, soy sauce, mirin, lime juice, butter, brown sugar, and ginger together in a bowl.
• Put chicken thighs into a large, resealable plastic bag. Pour the chile sauce mixture into the bag. Squeeze excess air from bag and seal; marinate at least 1 hour to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Prepare a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Remove chicken thighs from marinade and shake to remove excess moisture; arrange onto prepared baking sheet.
• Pour marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer marinade for 10 minutes.
• Roast chicken thighs in preheated oven for 20 minutes, brush with the reserved marinade, and continue roasting until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

EASY CHICKEN PAD THAI

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine the sugar, pepper, tamarind, Sriracha, fish sauce and chicken broth. Whisk until sugar has dissolved and set aside.
• In a large bowl combine sliced chicken, 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 3 tablespoons low-sodium tamari. Toss to coat and set off to the side.
• Heat a large pot of water to a boil. Once the water is at a full boil, drop in the noodles, stir and turn off the heat. Allow the noodles to soak for 5 to 8 minutes or until soft but still firm in the center. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• Meanwhile heat a large wok or 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the olive oil and garlic. Stir-fry for one minute before add the chicken in an even layer (working in batches if necessary). Cook for 5 minutes before flipping and cooking for 5 more minutes or until fully cooked. Add in the light green onion slices, cook for 30 seconds before adding the noodles, bean sprouts and sauce. Pour in the slurry and use two wooden spoons or spatulas to toss the ingredients together. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and noodles are perfectly tender.
• Serve immediately topping with the remaining dark green onion slices, torn cilantro, chopped peanuts, a squeeze of fresh lime and extra sriracha if you like it spicy!
