Pad See Ew — Chicken recipe, Thai cuisine — Pad See Ew · Thai

Level Medium

Ingredients

6 oz /180g rice stick noodles
2 tbsp Dark soy sauce
2 tbsp Oyster Sauce
2 tsp Soy Sauce
2 tsp White Vinegar
2 tsp Sugar
2 tbsp Water
2 tbsp Peanut Oil
2 clove Garlic
1 cup Chicken
1 Egg
4 cup Chinese Broccoli

Method

Mix Sauce in small bowl.
Mince garlic into wok with oil. Place over high heat, when hot, add chicken and Chinese broccoli stems, cook until chicken is light golden.
Push to the side of the wok, crack egg in and scramble. Don't worry if it sticks to the bottom of the wok - it will char and which adds authentic flavour.
Add noodles, Chinese broccoli leaves and sauce. Gently mix together until the noodles are stained dark and leaves are wilted. Serve immediately!

Tips for the best Pad See Ew

Use a kitchen scale for the dry ingredients if you have one — baking is less forgiving than cooking.
Let the chicken come up to room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking so it cooks evenly.
Rest the finished dish for a few minutes before serving — it lets the flavours settle and the texture firm up.

Variations

Vegetable boost: stir in a handful of spinach, peas or diced peppers in the last few minutes of cooking.
Swap the chicken for turkey or firm tofu or chickpeas — keep the cooking time similar and check for doneness.
Spicier version: add a pinch of chilli flakes or a sliced fresh chilli with the aromatics.

Serving ideas

Best with fresh berries on the side and a little whipped cream.

Storage

Keeps in an airtight container at room temperature for 2–3 days, or refrigerated for up to a week. Most versions freeze well for 2 months.
