Ingredients
For sauce:
- ⅓ cup water
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
For noodles
- 1 package 8 ounces pad thai rice noodles
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- ½ cup cashew roasted, salted
- 1 chicken breast 8 ounce, thinly sliced
- ½ sweet onion thinly sliced
- 2 carrot diced, large
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup snow peas
- ¼ cup green onion thinly sliced
Instructions
For the Sauce
- Add all of the ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside until ready to use.
For the Pad Thai
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the rice noodles for 4 minutes and then drain and rinse them under cold water. Set aside.
- Heat a large high-sided skillet (or wok) over medium heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat for a minute.
- Next, add the cashews and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the cashews are toasted and golden brown. Remove the toasted cashews to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and allow it to heat for an additional minute.
- Next add the chicken breast, onion, and carrots. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked all the way through and the vegetables are just tender.
- Next, add the garlic. Stir and cook for an additional minute.
- Add the sauce and noodles to the pan and toss to combine. Cook for an additional minute, to warm the noodles.
- Lastly, add the snow peas and green onion. Cook for one more minute, just until the snow peas are warmed through.
- Serve immediately garnished with additional chopped cashews and sesame seeds, if desired.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
