Equipment
- 1 Wok
Ingredients
- 16 ounces rice noodles cooked according to package instructions
- 1 red pepper sliced thinly
- 8 ounces fresh mushrooms sliced
- 3 tomatoes chopped in 1 " chunks
- ½ pound chicken thighs cut in 1" pieces
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 4 kaffir lime leaves
- 2 tablespoons nam prik pao
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemongrass paste
- 1 teaspoon coconut sugar
- ¼ cup chicken stock
- limes for serving
- cilantro for serving
Instructions
- Heat the coconut oil in a wok or large high sided skillet.
- Add the chicken and cook through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add the tomatoes, red pepper, mushrooms and lime leaves and cook until mushrooms have released their liquid.
- Add the remaining ingredients (except noodles, lime and cilantro) and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the chicken and noodles and toss to coat with the sauce.
- Serve with chopped cilantro and fresh lime.
Notes
- Stir fries cook quickly so make sure you have your veggies sliced and ready to go when the chicken is cooked.
- To save time, cook the noodles while the chicken and veggies are cooking, or cook them in advance.
- For a spicier tom yum sauce, just add more nam prik pao.
- If the sauce is too sour or tangy or you like it sweeter, just add a little more sugar.
- Instead of chicken thighs, you can use skinless, boneless chicken breasts.
- To ensure you have enough room for the stir fry to come together, use a wok or large high sided skillet.
- You can leave out the noodles and serve this tom yum stir fry with rice instead. This coconut jasmine rice would be delicious with it.
- If you don’t have rice noodles, you can also use egg noodles or other long, slender noodles like spaghetti, soba or ramen noodles.
