PAD THAI - LOWER FAT VERSION RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Pad Thai - Lower Fat Version Recipe - Food.com image

I got this from Chatelaine, a Canadian magazine. This is a lower fat version, but not low on taste! This is really yummy and the fat content is cut by omitting oil, adding lots of vegetables and cutting out fat laden peanuts.

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 (10 ounce) can undiluted chicken broth, can use low sodium
1/2 lb rice noodles (about 1/2 pkg)
3 cups boiled water, for noodles
1 egg
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fish or 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 -2 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon hot red chili pepper flakes (optional)
6 garlic cloves (I use minced garlic)
4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 red peppers (cored and seeded, sliced in thin strips) or 2 orange peppers (cored and seeded, sliced in thin strips)
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh coriander
1/2 cup coarsely chopped mint leaf (optional)
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced in strips
1/2 lb peeled and deveined uncooked shrimp, fresh
2 cups bean sprouts
1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Place noodles in a large bowl.
  • Cover completely with boiling water, soak, stirring occasionally, until noodles are just tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Drain well and set aside.
  • Whisk egg in a small bowl, then stir in sugar, fish or oyster sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire, chili-garlic sauce and chili flakes.
  • Set aside.
  • Boil broth over high heat, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by half, about 6 minutes.
  • Pour reduced chicken broth into a large, non-stick skillet, add garlic, chicken and shrimp.
  • Stir frequently until shrimp start to turn pink and chicken starts to turn white.
  • Stir in egg mixture, then add drained noodles.
  • Stir to evenly coat.
  • If noodles begin to stick, reduce heat to medium.
  • Add green onions, peppers, coriander, mint and bean sprouts.
  • Continue stirring until noodles are heated through, from 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add chopped peanuts if you want, but they will increase fat content for this lowfat recipe.
  • Spoon into bowls and serve with lime.
  • Note: You can substitute frozen pre-cooked shrimp for the fresh.

PAD THAI RECIPE | EATINGWELL



Pad Thai Recipe | EatingWell image

This healthy pad thai recipe has less than half the calories and sodium of the traditional Thai-restaurant favorite. Look for dried wide rice noodles, sometimes called “Pad Thai noodles” or “straight-cut,” in the Asian-food section at most supermarkets and natural-foods stores. Serve with sliced cucumbers with a rice vinegar and cilantro vinaigrette.

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ounces dried wide rice noodles
2 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil, divided
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
8 ounces small shrimp (see Tip), peeled and deveined
4 cups mung bean sprouts

¼ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
