Paleo Pad See Ew

Thai
Dinner
Ingredients:
- 6 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- 1 pound chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 2 tablespoons oil (I prefer olive oil for the taste with this dish, but coconut will work too)
- 3 cups broccoli rabe florets and leaves (or chinese broccoli)
- 10 carrots, peeled
- ⅓ cup coconut aminos (the verdict is still out on whether this is SCD legal, so use with caution if you’re SCD)
- 1 ½ tablespoons coconut sugar (sub honey for SCD or omit for Whole30)
- 2 eggs
Instructions:
- Lay your peeled carrots flat on a cutting board and use a Y-peeler to create very thin but wide ribbons. A regular vegetable peeler will work too, a Y-peeler is just easier to use when the carrot is flat. You basically just continue peeling the carrot after you’ve removed the outer dirty skin.
- Slice the chicken very thinly on a diagonal. Warm the oil in a deep saute pan or wok over medium heat, then add the garlic and chicken and saute for 5 minutes until the chicken is white on the outside.
- Add the broccoli, coconut aminos, and coconut sugar, and continue cooking for 5 minutes until the broccoli has softened a bit. Add the carrot ribbons and cook for 5 more minutes.
- Push the stir-fry aside in the pan, then crack the 2 eggs into the pan and stir vigorously to scramble them. Let them cook for a minute or so until they have firmed up, then mix everything back together.
Serve with Tom Kha Gai, Thai Yellow Curry with Prawns, and an ice cold Thai Iced Tea. Enjoy!

I will for sure be trying this today. Thank you so much!
Against All Grain
Come back and let us know what you think Adrienne! I’m actually making it again for dinner tonight too. It’s our new favorite!

This looks so good, I’ll be trying it for sure. One question, I am new to Paleo eating, what is SCD ?
Against All Grain
Hi Cara- SCD is the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. A lot of people with Crohn’s, Celiac, or Ulcerative Colitis follow it because helps control their symptoms. It’s similar to the Paleo diet, but a little less restrictive.
Cara
I forgot to mention that Andrew Cordova at We are Gluten Free had a link to Coconut Aminos on his blog today, Are there different brands and what type of store would carry it locally ?

Have you tried the yam flour noodles? The Japanese version is shirataki and there is a Chinese version: wider and flat form Tianjin.
Elena
Oh, thank you for the recipe. Will it work with zucchini ribbons too ?
Against All Grain
I wouldn’t use zucchini ribbons as the flavor of zucchini is strong and is not characteristic of pad see ew. Plus it has a lot of moisture in it and will water down the sauce.
Donna
I would give shaved celeriac (celerie rave) a shot if you have concerns regarding the glycemic index of cooked carrots (as I do)…as I think their moisture content is similar and I believe its flavor would marry well in this dish!…You will not get the color “pop” of orange however!
Joan Bell
This recipe looks really yummy but I will be adding more spices, does the carrot go soft to mimic the rice noodles? Love your new pantry, brilliant use of the space.
Against All Grain
Yes they do! The original dish doesn’t use spices so we left them out of this one. My yellow curries uses loads!

I just tried this pad see ew and it was phenomenal! thank you so much for the recipe 🙂
Emily
Made this tonight and it was so good. I added a little kosher salt. Delicious cold too.
Lindsay
Made this tonight. It was AMAZING! Never thought the carrot would be as good as noodle, but WOW! So good. Thank you!!
Brook
I just made this and it is yummy! I am going to keep this in rotation. Thank you so much!
Natasha Hopkins
I tried this last night and it was good. i added a little more sugar and spice but i like the noodle substitute. however, I ended up not using all the carrots ribbons. “10carrots” really depending on the size of carrots used. It would be ideal if the number of shaved ribbons was translated into cups. Now I have to find another recipe that calls for about three cups of carrot ribbons. Other than that, great recipe.

This recipe is amazing and one of my favorites! It makes this Mommy really happy when my kids eat all their veggies. It has been really difficult for me to find recipes that I can eat along with making my kids and hubby smile. I love your website and look forward to your book.

I love this recipe and make this all time, coconut aminos are my favorite for Asian StirFrys.
Thanks for sharing your awesome recipes with us.

Made this for dinner tonight. Total success and very easy!
Shirley
This was delicious and I even omitted the honey as I’m not having any sweeteners of any kind. Thank you so much for all your awesome recipes!
Miķelis
Your recipes are great, thanks! I was wondering, do you think this would work by cutting some coconut tortillas into noodle width strips? Sort of like the idea with your lasagna. Just curious as to your thoughts on such an approach.
Against All Grain
I don’t know! They might get soggy, but it’s worth a try!
Melissa
HOLY MOLY best dish….ever.

I made this tonight after receiving my cookbook from Amazon yesterday. Oh my goodness it was so good! I already have several other recipes I cant wait to try. Thank you for putting this great book together!
Sarah
Made this the other day and it is perfection. I forgot brocolini at the farmers market but I threw in a bunch of blanched kale and it was divine. My boyfriend raved about the flavor and richness of the dish. Definitely a repeat recipe!

I made this FABULOUS recipe for dinner last night and it was a BIG hit with my 2 year old daughter and my husband. YAY! I love having new recipes to add to the family favorites. THANK YOU!!! 🙂
Abby
Just chowed down on this and it was delish! I even omitted the coconut sugar! I used regular broccoli because I couldn’t find the rabe/Chinese kind. Now I just realized I forgot the eggs….darn! I will have to add them to my leftovers tomorrow! 😉
Todd
I am currently enjoying the last of this dish (I made it on Sunday). It is becoming difficult to choose my “favorite” dishes from your book because everything is so good. But this one is certainly at the top of the list. I added some jalepeno and serano peppers to give it a little kick.
Linda
I made this for lunch today. This will definitely be added in to the recipe rotation. Thanks for yet another great recipe!
Edy
Made this after seeing the author cook on Netflix’s Paleo Way season2.
Carrots as noodles was perfect! Leftovers kept and reheated/re-served superbly.
I added bit of shallot in with the garlic.
No sugar needed.. organic carrots made it plenty sweet.
For spice, was easy to add chilies once served, per each portion/eater.
Thanks Danielle. This is cleanest stir fry I ever cooked. No Soysauce!?!? That’s right!
Blessings to the chef!

How do you think Sweet Potato ribbons (instead of carrots) taste in this recipe?
Stephanie Saia
Has anyone tried to make this recipe with sweet potato ribbons instead of carrots?
Terri Barmann
Loved this! Super easy and very delicious dish!!
Michelle Blom
Still a family favorite, even my picky eaters ask for this once a week.
