I love Pad Thai but it is one of the heavier ethnic dishes that I crave. Today, Im sharing a recipe to lighten up the classic meal using Shirataki Noodles.

Ingredients

Shirataki noodles 2 Packet
Coconut oil 2 Teaspoon
Minced garlic 1 Teaspoon
Cooked shrimp 6 Ounce (medium sized)
Egg 1
Egg white 1
Bean sprouts 5 Ounce
Scallion 1 Ounce , chopped finely
Crushed peanut 1 Tablespoon
Lime wedges 2 (as needed)
For sauce
Fish sauce 1 1/2 Tablespoon

GETTING READY

1. First, prepare the sauce by combining all ingredients together. Set aside.

2. Also, prepare your noodles. You can par-boil or microwave. Pat dry and really press with a paper towel to absorb some of the liquid. Allow to sit while you prepare the rest of the meal on a towel after you get out some good liquid.

 

MAKING

3. Preheat your skillet with coconut oil. Add in the garlic and saute.

4. Then add in your shrimp. If you used cooked like me, coat with garlic and then move on to the next step. Otherwise, cook until they are no longer opaque.

5. Push shrimp to the side, now crack 1 egg and egg white into the skillet. Break yolk and scramble gently until egg separate into little pieces.

6. Now add in noodles, then the sauce, scallions and bean sprouts. Simmer for 3-4 minutes or until bean sprouts are cooked through.

 

SERVING
