Instructions
 

  • Mix the ketchup, brown sugar, fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and rice vinegar in a bowl.
  • Chop all the other ingredients that have to be prepared.
  • Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions. In my case, I just poured boiling hot water on my rice noodles and strained it after 3 minutes.
  • Put olive oil in a deep pan, wait until hot, saute the onions, then the garlic.
  • Add the chicken, and saute until light brown.
  • Move the chicken to one side, and add the lightly whisked eggs on the other side. Once the eggs are cooked, mix together chicken and eggs.
  • Add the cooked rice noodles, then the pad thai sauce. Mix everything together.
  • Serve with green onions, walnuts, a sprinkle of cayenne pepper, and lemon wedges.
