Time 50m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
6 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 cloves garlic, minced
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 (16 ounce) package pad Thai rice noodles
½ cup fresh bean sprouts
2 cups beef broth
½ cup chopped green onion

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Season chicken with salt and black pepper; set aside.
  • Whisk sugar, cayenne pepper, white wine vinegar, fish sauce, and peanut butter together in a bowl.
  • Coat the inside of a large skillet or wok with olive oil and place over high heat.
  • Cook and stir chicken in the hot oil just until the meat is white outside but still pink inside, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove chicken and set aside in a bowl.
  • Lower the heat under the skillet to medium-low. Cook and stir garlic in the skillet until it becomes translucent, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Cook and stir eggs into garlic until loosely cooked, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Pour peanut sauce into the garlic and eggs, and stir to combine. Bring sauce to a simmer.
  • Stir rice noodles into the boiling water. Cook until noodles are still slightly tough, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the noodles.
  • Return chicken to the skillet with eggs and sauce. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, stirring frequently, 5 to 8 more minutes.
  • Stir bean sprouts, rice noodles. and beef broth into the skillet. Bring to a simmer, and cook until noodles are tender and most of the broth has been absorbed, about 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with green onions to serve..
