Keto Pad Thai with shirataki noodles is a real thing! Delicious keto Thai stir fry noodles with chicken, shrimp and delicious Pad Thai sauce! Shirataki noodles here actually taste good!
Pad Thai is one of the most popular Thai recipes, and trust me, when you try this keto Pad Thai you won't miss anything! This is a restaurant quality low carb Pad Thai recipe!
Yes, it's made with shirataki noodles, or as they call them, miracle noodles or konnyaku noodles, but they taste really good in this keto Thai combination! Original Pad Thai is made with rice noodles and they don't have some especially uber delicious taste, but who cares, when you have fantastic Pad Thai sauce! That's why, shirataki noodles are really great substitute! Probably, this is one of the best recipes with shirataki noodles!
HOW TO MAKE A REALLY DELICIOUS KETO PAD THAI WITH SHIRATAKI NOODLES?
Chicken and shrimp with pepper and eggs
You can make this popular Thai dish with shrimp or with chicken, but I like to have it all! Make it with chicken and shrimp for a full delicious Thai taste! Fried chicken and shrimp/prawns are great combo, especially when soaked in delicious Pad Thai sauce!
I always start this keto Thai dish with frying chicken on a pan or a skillet on coconut oil, gradually adding red pepper cut in stripes and at the end adding shrimp and spring onion greens. I love to season it just with salt and freshly ground pepper.
When chicken, shrimp, pepper and onion are done, chicken and shrimp are golden brown, just push everything to the side and pour whisked eggs onto the other side and scramble less then a minute. Combine everything and add Pad Thai sauce.
Keto Pad Thai sauce
Every person who reads my blog regularly, already knows that I love peanut butter and peanuts in all combinations. That's why, this is actually keto Pad Thai peanut sauce! Oh, yes! Pad Thai sauce is much better with unsweetened peanut butter and I use it a lot.
To make a really delicious Pad Thai sauce with peanut butter, combine fish sauce and oyster sauce with unsweetened peanut butter. That's delicious combination that will totally elevate noodles, chicken and shrimp.When you combine naturally tasteless shirataki noodles with this peanut sauce, they become really delicious. It doesn't matter if they have a structure like a rubber! 🙂
How to cook shirataki noodles to taste good?
Shirataki noodles or miracle noodle fettuccine recipe is actually very easy to prepare. It's the best to rinse them with a plenty of water one or two times and put them into a boiling water with just a pinch of salt for 2 minutes. After that transfer noodles on dry hot pan for just a minute or two and they are ready to make any of your favorite shirataki noodles stir-fry recipes.
Shirataki noodles prepared on this way are without any taste and smell and you can use them in any recipe to replace the noodles. They are quite chewy or better say rubbery so I love them only in keto Thai recipes because these Thai spices, fish sauce and similar, make them really appetizing.
