Pad Thai Shirataki Noodles Recipes

PALEO & KETO PAD THAI WITH SHIRATAKI NOODLES

Steps:

• We think best to follow manufacturer's instructions (albeit rinse for a little longer until the konjac plant aroma goes away). So it's easy peasy: drain the noodles, rinse well in cold water, place in boiling water for two minutes, then dry the noodles in a non-oiled pan over medium heat. Set aside.
• Whisk together thoroughly in a small bowl fish sauce, coconut aminos, sweetener and red pepper flakes or cayenne. Add lime juice to taste, starting at 2 tablespoons.
• Heat up oil in a skillet or pan over medium heat. Add in garlic and sautée briefly until it just starts to brown. Add in shrimp and cook for 2-5 minutes on each side (depending on their size), until just cooked through. Pile the shrimp on the edge of the pan.
• Pour in the lightly beaten eggs and continue to cook, stirring them to scramble, until solid but still moist and tender.
• Pour in the prepared sauce and mix briefly until the shrimp and scrambled eggs are evenly coated. Add in prepared noodles, tossing to coat in the sauce. Add soy sprouts and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Garnish with green onions, cilantro and peanuts. Serve immediately with fresh lime.

PAD THAI (SHIRATAKI NOODLES)

Steps:

• Slice the chicken breasts into very thin slivers. Drain the Shirataki noodles and make sure they're dry (don't want to retain the smell of the water they're packaged in).

• Separately, combine the soy sauce, peanut butter, water and red pepper paste. Pour the sauce over the noodles and meat.
• Add the vinegar and brown sugar and toss it all together. Allow the sauce to heat through. Remove from the heat.
• Top with peanuts and serve.
