Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Noodles

Soak the thin rice noodles in warm water for about 30 minutes or until softened. Drain and set aside.

2

Cook the Tofu

In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the cubed tofu and fry until golden brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.

3

Cook the Chicken

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Add the Eggs

Push the chicken to one side of the skillet, crack the eggs into the other side, and scramble until fully cooked.

5

Combine Ingredients

Add the soaked rice noodles and cooked tofu back into the skillet. Toss everything together.

6

Add the Sauce

Pour in your favorite Pad Thai sauce (which typically includes tamarind paste, fish sauce, sugar, and chili). Stir well to coat all ingredients evenly.

7

Finish and Serve

Remove from heat, stir in the chopped chives, and top with crushed peanuts. Serve warm.
