Ingredients
FOR THE SAUCE
- 3 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1-1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 1-1/2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 1-2 teaspoons Sriracha to taste
- 1 teaspoon sugar or to taste
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
FOR THE DRUNKEN NOODLES
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil or other neutral oil
- 2-3 bird’s eye chilies chopped (or use serrano peppers or other hotter peppers to your preference)
- 1 small white onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic mince
- 8 ounces chicken breast chopped (or use chicken thighs)
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 8 ounces dried rice noodles
EXTRAS
- 1 cup chopped green onion
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- fresh Thai basil leaves use a good handful
- Extra spicy peppers and red chili flakes for garnish
Instructions
- FOR THE SAUCE. Whisk together the oyster sauce, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sriracha, sugar and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside until ready to use.
- FOR THE DRUNKEN NOODLES. Heat the peanut oil in a wok or large pan to high heat. Add the chilies and onion and cook for 2-3 minutes to soften.
- Add the garlic, chicken and fish sauce. Stir to coat and cook another 2-3 minutes, or until the chicken is mostly cooked through.
- Set the rice noodles into boiling water and boil for 2-3 minutes until softened, or to the packaging directions. Drain, then stir into the wok or pan.
- Add the reserved sauce and stir to coat, along with the chopped green onion and cherry tomatoes. Cook 1-2 minutes to thicken up.
- Remove from heat and stir in the basil.
- Garnish with extra spicy peppers, red chili flakes and serve.
Notes
- Heat Factor: Hot. You’ll get some very nice heat from the bird’s eye chilies. If you’d like a milder version, dial back on the peppers or use peppers with less heat. Skip the chili flakes. Feel free to add in more for more pronounced heat.
