Pad Thai

This is the closest version of Pad Thai that I've had that I really really like. I absolutely LOVE this stuff. It's easy to make and it's pretty healthy for you. If you use whole wheat noodles it's actually gameon friendly. It's from Ourbestbites....LOVE THIS WEBSITE. I've changed like 1 thing, (making it not so hot)

In a sauce pan over low heat mix together the following until it's all melted together and saucy. Remove from heat when done.
1 c. chicken broth
6 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
1 tsp. Sriracha chili sauce (1 is mild with a bite, 1.5 is medium, 2 is hot)
3 Tbsp. honey
6 Tbsp. soy sauce
3 Tbsp. fresh minced ginger
3-4 cloves garlic, pressed or minced

Bring water to a boil and right before you are ready to serve add the noodles (the Udon cook in just 3minutes)
12 oz. Udon or linguine noodles

Have these ready and on the side to garnish your dish
Chopped green onions
Chopped cilantro
2 limes, cut into quarters
Chopped peanuts

That's it, the only change I make is I'll cook a couple of pieces of chicken breast and slice it up and add it to the meal.

C: pasta
