Quick Shrimp Pad Thai

  1. Submerge wide (pad thai) rice noodles in a bowl of very warm (110u0b0F) water and soak until they're pliable but still rather firm, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prep the rest of the ingredients. Drain the noodles in a colander (no need to pat dry).
  2. In a small bowl, combine the fish sauce, sugar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and chile-garlic sauce.
  3. Once the noodles are drained, heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet or stir-fry pan over high heat until very hot. Add the garlic, stir, and immediately add the shrimp. Stir-fry until the shrimp turn pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the fish sauce mixture. Stir to mix for about 20 seconds, then add the chile slivers and the noodles. Stir-fry until the noodles are tender and the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. If the noodles are too firm, add 1 Tbs. of water and cook another minute. Add the bean sprouts and stir-fry until they're slightly limp, 1 to 2 min. Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates, and garnish with the peanuts, cilantro, and mint. Serve immediately, with lime wedges on the side.
