This was so good! Listened to previous posters and sauted chicken in garlic, trippled the sauce did not have beans sprouts so just put green onions and shredded carrots! Def making this again.

We didn't like this at all. Even after doubling the sauce part of the recipe, it was still far too many noodles for the rest of the recipe, quite dry, and tasted funny.

This recipe was good, but needed some tweaking to really get it right. For starters, I sauteed a few cloves of minced garlic in the (olive) oil along with the chicken. Then, I used 2 eggs instead of 4. The sauce on the recipe is a bit out of whack, so I wound up tripling, doubling and adding some things to it. (Triple the vinegar and fish sauce, double the sugar, and add 2 tbs soy sauce, 1 tbs sriracha sauce, 1 tsp peanut butter and I added cayenne and extra red pepper to give it more of a kick.) I also used lime instead of lemon. It was really delicious, and tasted like Pad Thai from one of my favorite Thai restaurants. With the adjustments, I will make this again and again!

I really loved the healthines of this dish and simplicity. I made this for my parents and siblings the othe night and they loved it. I marinated the chicken in oil, lemon, dill, garlic, and shallots.

Fabulous! We followed other users comments and reduced the sugar by a bit, and doubled the amount of sauce -- it wasn't too saucy so I think that was a good alteration. I personally enjoy lots of add-ins, so I added tofu(that I pressed under a cast-iron pan for 1 hour, then sauteed in sesame oil before adding to noodles), shrimp, red pepper, broccoli, onions, green onions to the noodles in addition to raw on top, 1 roma tomato minus the seeds, and carrots. YUM! Also I prefer limes to lemons. Had a chili garlic sauce on the side for those who like a kick. I used sesame oil instead of veggie oil. This was better than many restaurants. My guests were so impressed. Will be making this again

As written I thought this recipe was only ok. I usually read the reviews before making a new dish but did ot this time and regret it. The dish was way too dry. Will make again but with at least twice the sauce as others recommended and see if we like it better.

Made this and it turned out awful... did what others suggested and soaked the noodles in boiling water (they said 10 minutes) I only soaked about 8 and they were nothing but mush.. doubled the sauce ingredients and all you could taste was vinegar & fish sauce... I used boneless pork loin and tofu... added red & orange peppers like others suggested... threw everything away and very expensive in the trash :(

I made this! It's wonderful but I added Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce that i purchased at the Chinese grocery store, brought this pad thai to a whole new level of delish! This version a 3, my version a 5! I definitely recommend this version as a base.
