Woo Can Cook (live) | Chicken Pad Thai

Hi hello there! We're having chicken pad thai for dinner tonight, which is one of my favorite pantry-friendly noodle dishes of all time. For those not familiar, pad thai is a Thai rice noodle stir fry that leans heavily on the use of tamarind paste and fish sauce.

This is one of my favorites to have in the back pocket when I haven't gone grocery shopping in a while, because almost the entire dish comes together with either pantry or freezer friendly ingredients.

Freshen up on the recipe here, bookmark the stream here, and pick up the ingredients below if you want to follow along and cook dinner with me.
