How to Make Thai Drunken Pasta

  1. Cook 8 oz dried noodles according to package directions. Set aside.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon peanut oil to a wok or large skillet to prevent sticking.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in the wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté until lightly browned (about 30 seconds).
  5. Add 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces, and cook until no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Add 1/2 medium onion, sliced; 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced; 8 oz sliced mushrooms; and 1 cup broccoli florets.
  7. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, until vegetables are slightly tender-crisp.
  8. Add the cooked noodles and stir to combine.
  9. Add 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce (or to taste), 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste), 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  10. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes, until noodles are heated through and coated in the sauce. The sauce should slightly thicken.
