Whenever someone says they've never had Thai food before I feel incredibly sorry for them...they have no idea what they are missing... I must fix this!
I usually do this with zucchini noodles and chicken, but I had some friends to demonstrate the beautiful deliciousness of Thai food to! Soooo...I decided to chill the f out, accept that it doesn't always have to be as healthy as possible, and buy two pounds of steak! 😉😂
Needless to say, they are now totally convinced Thai food lovers...mission accomplished!
Spicy Steak Pad Thai
1 box rice noodles
2 T EVOO
2 lbs skirt steak- cut into pieces
2 zucchini sliced
1 red onion
1 C sliced mushrooms
5 cloves garlic- minced
1 C sliced mini sweet peppers
1 C broccoli slaw mix
2 eggs- beaten
1/2 t crushed red pepper flakes
4 green onions- sliced
Cilantro and lime for garnish
Sauce:
2/3 C soy sauce- make sure it's GF!
1 inch fresh ginger- minced
4 T brown sugar
2 T sriracha
1 T red chili paste (Thai kitchen)
1 T fish sauce
Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Meanwhile whisk together the sauce ingredients and set aside. Heat the EVOO in a wok. Add the steak and cook. Remove steak to a plate and add the eggs and red pepper flakes to the wok until cooked. Remove to the plate. Once the water is boiling add your rice noodles and remove from heat. Let them sit for about 10 minutes while you cook the veggies. Add the zucchini, peppers, onion, garlic, broccoli slaw, and mushrooms to the wok. Cook for a few minutes. Add the steak and eggs back to the wok with the veggies, pour the sauce over and stir. Stir in the noodles when they are ready. Serve and garnish with cilantro, green onions, lime, and extra sriracha if you're spicy like me! Enjoy!
Per request of the new Thai lovers Moscow mules were on the side! Thai night is always a great night! 😉
