Zesty Chili-Lime Shrimp Pad Thai
Sautéed shrimp and brown rice noodles tossed in a vibrant chili-lime sauce, featuring crunchy bean sprouts and toasted peanuts for a zesty, aromatic finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz shrimp
1.5 oz brown rice noodles
1 large egg
0.5 tsp sesame oil
1.5 tbsp tamari
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp fish sauce
1 tsp honey
0.25 tsp red chili flakes
1 clove garlic
1 tsp fresh ginger
1 cup bean sprouts
2 tbsp green onions
1 tbsp peanuts
2 tbsp fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Place the dry brown rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with very hot water. Let them soak for 10-15 minutes until tender but still firm, then drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, lime juice, fish sauce, honey, and red chili flakes to create the pad thai sauce.
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Push the shrimp to one side of the pan.
Crack the egg into the empty side of the skillet and scramble quickly until just set, then mix it into the shrimp.
Add the drained noodles and the prepared sauce to the pan. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes until the noodles are well-coated and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Fold in the bean sprouts and green onions, cooking for just 30 seconds to maintain their crunch.
Remove from heat and garnish with crushed peanuts and fresh cilantro before serving.
