Pad See Ew image

Not as famous as Pad Thai but just as delicious, this classic Thai dish calls for stir-frying rice noodles with soy sauce. The unique flavor comes from browning the ingredients and allowing the sauce to caramelize. Your pan should be so hot that you hear a sizzle throughout cooking.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 Thai bird chiles, thinly sliced crosswise
2 tablespoons plus 4 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
8 ounces dried rice-stick noodles
2 large eggs
6 tablespoons sweet soy sauce
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons safflower oil
8 ounces skirt steak, cut into 3-inch pieces and thinly sliced against the grain (about 1/4 inch thick)
8 ounces Broccolini, stems thinly sliced on the bias and florets cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon minced garlic (2 to 3 cloves)

Steps:

  • Place sliced chiles in a small bowl and cover with 2 tablespoons vinegar.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil; remove from heat. Stir in noodles; let soak until softened (but still undercooked), 2 minutes. Drain; rinse under cold water until cool. Crack eggs into a bowl. In a separate bowl or measuring cup, stir together sweet soy sauce, soy sauce, and remaining 4 teaspoons vinegar.
  • Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over high until very hot, about 2 minutes (a sprinkle of water should evaporate immediately). Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat sides and bottom. Add steak, spreading into a single layer. Let sear (do not stir) until golden on bottom, about 1 minute. Toss and turn occasionally until golden on all sides and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reheat skillet over high. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and swirl to coat sides and bottom. Add eggs and immediately scramble for 20 seconds. Add Broccolini and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, about 1 minute. Add drained noodles, seared steak and accumulated juices, and soy sauce mixture. Toss to coat. Cook 4 minutes, stirring every minute and allowing the sauce to sit and caramelize in between stirring. Serve with pickled chiles.
