    What makes Chicken Pad Thai different than other popular Thai dishes is the crushed peanuts and tamarind along with a few more important spices. 

    Spicy Chicken Pad Thai Recipe

    This dish can be pulled together in under 30 minutes so follow along.

    This recipe is inspired by my partner’s favorite Thai dish = Pad Thai!

    Pad Thai is also one of Thailand’s most famous stir frys and whenever we go to any new Thai restaurant, it’s the first thing my Man will order.

    I can hear it now, what do you two want to order. PAD THAI!!

    Spicy Chicken Pad Thai Recipe

    I like Pad Thai too, it’s just I find most restaurants make it way to sweet and I much prefer recipes with a little bit of heat.

    So I decided to create the same dish but with the addition of a little more heat to make it more suitable to my taste.

    If you prefer a more sweet Pad Thai simply omit the red chilies. 

    And well my partner in crime… he is just super happy I now make it for him at home.

    If you prefer the more sweet Pad Thai recipes, then you can simly up the sugar in this recipe by 2 tbsp.

    Which will make a dish quite similar to those restaurant style pad thai dishes.

    After all it’s your Pad Thai and I want you to make it how you like it.

    So what gives mine the extra heat? It’s the chili powder and the “red chili paste”. Easy enough eh?

    HOW TO MAKE PAD THAI

    Make sure you are using Tamarind Concentrate vs the paste.

    You will know the difference because the concentrate is sold in small containers vs the paste which is actually a pulp and has to be soaked in water and strained prior to using.

    When in doubt, just read the tamarind directions prior to purchasing.
