How to Make Pad Thai Fried Noodles With Shrimp
- Peel and devein 1 pound of shrimp. Set aside.
- Cook 8 ounces of rice noodles in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until tender but still slightly firm. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.
- While noodles cook, mince 4 cloves of garlic.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add minced garlic and saute for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add shrimp to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until pink and opaque.
- Pour in 2 large beaten eggs to the skillet.
- Cook without stirring until the edges of the egg begin to set.
- Gently stir the egg and shrimp mixture until the egg is fully cooked and broken into small pieces.
- Add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of fish sauce, and 1-2 tablespoons of sriracha (or to taste). Stir until well combined and the sugar dissolves.
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss gently to coat with the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until heated through.
- Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
- Serve immediately with lime wedges for squeezing over each serving.
