To buy
- 4 ounces rice noodles, 3/16 inch wide
- 6 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined
From your shelf
- 3 tablespoons pad thai seasoning mix, pad thai (Kikkoman)
Staples
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 eggs
- Soak 4 ounces of rice noodles in room-temperature water until they bend without breaking, about 10 minutes.
- Set a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons oil. Mince 2 cloves garlic into the hot pan and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add 6 ounces shrimp and cook, turning once, until they turn pink, about 4 minutes total.
- Push the shrimp to the side of the pan and crack 2 eggs into the empty space. Scramble them with a wooden spoon until just set, then toss with the shrimp.
- Drain the noodles and add them to the pan along with 3 tablespoons Kikkoman pad thai seasoning mix. Toss everything together over the heat for 2 to 3 minutes, adding a splash of water if the noodles stick, until the noodles are tender and coated.
Note Swap shrimp for tofu or chicken if you prefer. Leftovers keep in an airtight container for two days, reheated gently in the pan with a splash of water. Serve with lime wedges, fresh cilantro, and crushed peanuts on the side.
