  • 250 g fresh rice noodles can use 125g dried
  • 250 g raw chicken breast sub for other proteins such as raw chicken thigh, shrimp, or tofu
  • 1 tsp oil olive, sesame or coconut
  • 1 garlic clove
  • veggies of choice I use chinese broccoli, carrot and red onion.
  • 2 egg whisked
  • white pepper + salt to taste
Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Sweetener zero calorie, or normal white sugar
  • 1.5 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp white vinegar rice wine, or lemon/lime juice
Garnish
  • green onion
  • chopped red chillies in vinegar
  • lemon or lime

Method
 

  1. Optional (but recommended) Velvet/tenderise Chicken Breast: mix the thinly sliced chicken breast with 1 tsp baking soda & water. Let sit for 15-20 minutes, then drain and rinse. Pat dry.
  2. Heat a wok, large skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil and let it heat up.
  3. Add the sliced chicken and season with salt, pepper, and white pepper. Stir-fry the chicken until it's almost cooked through
  4. In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed and add the chopped garlic and the stalks of the Chinese broccoli. Pan-fry them for 1-2 minutes until they become slightly tender.
  5. Add the Chinese broccoli leaves and stir-fry until they begin to wilt slightly.
  6. Create a well in the center or side of the pan/wok and add the egg and egg white. Scramble the eggs until they are partially cooked.
  7. Incorporate the fresh rice noodles or prepared cooked thin rice noodles into the wok. Stir-fry everything together for 1-2 minutes, ensuring that the noodles are coated evenly with the flavors from the pan.
  8. Pour the sauce over the noodle mixture and continue stirring, making sure that all the ingredients are well coated with the sauce. Toss everything together gently to combine.
  9. Garnish the Pad See Ew with some chopped chili in vinegar, green onion and a lemon/lime wedge for an added kick of heat and freshness.
