Pad Thai With Chicken and Shrimp image

PLEASE NOTE: This calls for one 1/2 pound package of noodles. Not one pound. Not a pound and a half. I'm not sure how else to write it so that it's clearer. I think this is a great Pad Thai recipe - quick and easy. It's certainly a favourite in our house. I would suggest making a double batch of the sauce, so the dish is even more flavorful. For those with milder tastes, cut back on the red pepper flakes. The recipe as is has quite a bite to it. This isn't a "authentic" Pad Thai recipe, so if that's what you are looking for, then this may not be it.

I thought the Pad Thai was a bit bland. I added some extra fish sauce and tamarind paste, which helped to improve the flavor.

The Pad Thai sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise this recipe was excellent. I'll be sure to adjust the amount of sugar next time.
