Pad Thai With Chicken

• Sauce:
• 2 T tamarind paste (available on Amazon)
• 3 T Asian fish sauce (available on Amazon)
• 3 T palm sugar (available on Amazon)
• sriracha hot chile sauce: 1 1/2 t for mild; 2 1/4 t for spicy --- Our choice; 3 t = 1 T for HOT!
• Next Ingredients:
• 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 8 ounces), cut into bite size pieces
• 6 oz of rice noodles, cut into 6 inch lengths
• 1 large shallot, chopped fine
• 8 oz bag of mung bean sprouts
• 2 large cloves garlic, minced
• 2 green onions, sliced diagonally
• 2 T cilantro, chopped coarse
• 1 T sesame oil
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 lime cut into 4 wedges
• 3 T dry roasted peanuts, chopped coarse
• 1 -2 dozen flat leaf chives, trimmed to equal lengths about 4 inches

1. Mix the sauce ingredients and let stand until used. Soak the rice noodles in hot water for 4 minutes or so until tender. Then dry the noodles and reserve at room temperature.
2. Heat the oil in a wok over medium high heat while swishing around to cover the sides. Add the chicken and cook while stirring for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is starting to get brown. About 1 minute into this add the chives and stir in. About 2 minutes after the chives add the garlic and continue stirring for 2 minutes.
3. Add the sauce and the rice noodles and stir until everything is coated with the sauce; about 1 to 2 minutes
4. Move these ingredients to one side and pour the egg into the empty side of the wok. Stir the egg until mostly cooked (about 1 minute) then mix with the noodles and chicken.
5. Add half of the mung bean sprouts and stir into the mix for about 1 to 2 minutes.
6. Add the sliced green onion and cilantro, remove from the heat and stir into mixture.
7. SERVING:rnSpoon some of the cooked mixture onto a warmed plate. Arrange some of the raw bean sprouts on the plate next to the mixture. Place a small mound of the chopped peanuts next to the mixture. Arrange some flat leaf chives on the plate along with one or two lime wedges. (Optional) Place a small mound of red pepper flakes on the plate.
