Chicken Pad See Ew

Ingredients

  • 8 oz chicken thighs (or beef skirt steak, cut into bite sized pieces)
  • 8 oz dried wide rice noodles
  • 4 stalks Chinese broccoli (also called gai lan)
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil (or any neutral cooking oil, divided)
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce (this one is gluten free)
  • 2 tbsp tamari sauce (or soy sauce)
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (this one is gluten free)
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1½ tsp fish sauce
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)

Instructions

Mix together all ingredients for the sauce until the sugar dissolves. Add 1 tbsp to the chicken and mix together, and set aside the rest. Prepare the rice noodles by boiling about 1 minute less than package instructions. Run under cold water to keep from cooking. I do recommend timing this so the noodles are done right before they are about to be used, but it's not necessary. Trim the ends of the Chinese broccoli then thinly slice the stems. Cut the leafy parts into 2 inch pieces. Heat 1 tbsp of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken, then cook stirring until the meat is lightly browned on the outside. Push the meat aside and crack the eggs into the skillet. Break the yolk, then scramble until halfway cooked. Add Chinese broccoli, then stir everything together until the broccoli is just wilted - about 1-2 minutes. Push everything to the side and add the remaining 2 tbsp of oil. Once smoking hot, add noodles and sauce. Disperse the noodles and allow them to sit without touching for about 30 seconds so some of them can char. Flip and repeat. Mix everything together, remove from heat, and serve.
