Gluten Free Shrimp Pad Thai Recipes

SHRIMP PAD THAI

Steps:

• Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. They should be soft but not mushy. Drain and rinse under cool water.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients: fish sauce, rice vinegar, soy sauce, water, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce. If you prefer a sweeter pad thai, add additional honey (or even a little brown sugar). For spicier, add additional chili paste.
• Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and saute just until the shrimp begins to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and noodles. Stir continuously to coat the noodles and shrimp with the garlic, then push the ingredients in the skillet over to one side of the pan.
• Crack the eggs into the empty side of the skillet. Break apart the yolk with the spatula and let cook for 30 seconds, until just beginning to set. Stir the egg in with the noodles. Stir in the sauce.
• Add the bean sprouts, carrots, and chopped green onions and let cook until the bean sprouts are crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Sprinkle on the peanuts and cilantro. Serve immediately with lime wedges.

• Add egg; quickly cook and stir egg about 30 seconds. Add noodles, bean sprouts and half of the tamarind sauce. Cook and toss 3 to 4 minutes to prevent noodles from sticking. Thoroughly cook sprouts until they are no longer crisp. Add remaining tamarind sauce; remove from heat.
