Chicken Pad Thai is one of my favorite Asian Meals. It’s got pieces of chicken tossed and stir fried with rice noodles in a tangy, sweet, and savory sauce. Pleasing to any palate.

Tips & Tricks:

  • If you don’t have a wok, you can pick one up pretty cheap; or use a large frying pan.
  • If you’re feeling rushed or stressed turn the heat down and cook it low and slow.
  • Add more or less sauce depending on how you like it to taste.
