Chef Tips

- Seque as tiras de frango com papel-toalha antes de dourar para obter selagem perfeita na frigideira. - Misture o molho de tamarindo, o molho de peixe e o açúcar mascavo previamente em uma tigela antes de adicionar à panela. - Torre levemente o amendoim em frigideira seca antes de triturar para intensificar o aroma e a crocância.

Variations

- Seafood Pad Thai: add shrimp and squid rings sautéed quickly along with the chicken breast. - Spicy version: add chopped dedo-de-moça pepper or sriracha sauce during the initial garlic sauté. - Vegetarian version: remove the chicken and fish sauce, using tofu cubes and traditional soy sauce for seasoning.

Substitutions

- Chicken breast: can be replaced by cleaned medium shrimp or cubes of firm grilled tofu. - Tamarind sauce: use natural diluted tamarind pulp or lemon juice with a pinch of sugar. - Fish sauce: substitute with traditional soy sauce if you prefer a version without seafood derivatives.

How to Store

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, use a very hot skillet with a tablespoon of water to loosen the pasta without drying it out.

Can You Freeze It?

We do not recommend freezing this recipe. Rice noodles lose elasticity in the freezer and bean sprouts release too much water when thawed, becoming mushy.

What to Serve With

Serve accompanied by Tahiti lemon wedges to squeeze at the moment and chopped green onions. An extra portion of crushed peanuts and iced green tea complete the meal.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to prevent rice noodles from getting soggy?

Dip the noodles in warm water until soft or boil for only 2 to 3 minutes, draining and washing in cold water immediately to stop the cooking before entering the hot wok.

What gives Pad Thai its authentic flavor?

The authentic flavor base comes from the balanced combination of tamarind acidity, the umami saltiness of fish sauce, and the mild sweetness of brown sugar.

Can I make it in a regular non-stick skillet?

Yes, use the largest and deepest skillet available, keeping the heat medium-high and stirring quickly to simulate the enveloping heat of a traditional wok.
