Makes 4-6 servings 14 oz rice noodles (stir fry or pad thai noodles) 1 tb olive oil 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite size pieces 2 tb low sodium soy sauce 1 cup bean sprouts 1 red bell pepper, seed removed and sliced thin 1 cup shredded carrots 3 cloves garlic, mashed 2 eggs 1 cup green onions, sliced thin (this is ~1 bunch) ½ cup cilantro 1 lime, juiced 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes SAUCE 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce or tamari 2 tb toasted sesame oil 3 tb fish sauce 1/3 cup coconut sugar 3 tb rice vinegar 1/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter 1 tsp ground ginger GARNISH 1/3 cup chopped peanuts 1 lime, juiced and drizzled on top Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat, and once hot, add the chicken pieces and soy sauce. Cook for about 7-8 minutes, until browned on all sides and almost cooked through. Transfer the chicken from the pan to a plate, leaving the oil and juices from the chicken. Add the bean sprouts, bell pepper, carrots and garlic. Cook until the veggies have softened, about 4 minutes. While those are cooking, make the sauce. Add all sauce ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth and set aside. Once the veggies are done, push them to the side of the pan. Crack both eggs in the pan and scramble them. Combine with the veggies. Add the chicken, drained noodles, green onions, cilantro, lime, pepper flakes, and sauce to the pan. Toss to combine. Plate and top with additional cilantro, chopped peanuts, and a squeeze of lime. Enjoy!

If you're looking for a healthy and nourishing dinner, look no further. You need to make my Pad Thai inspired chicken noodles. This dish comes together in literally about 25 minutes. And the one thing you don't need to worry about is that there will be no shortage of sauce. I always feel like these noodle dish recipes really skimp on the sauce, but I think that is the absolute best part. It's also filled with chicken for protein, tons of veg, and of course, the rice noodles. Coat everything well in that delicious sauce and enjoy. The recipe is in the caption below. I hope you love this and follow along for more.
