Directions

Step 1
Soak rice noodles in warm water for 20-30 minutes until pliable but still firm. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together tamarind paste, fish sauce, and palm sugar until sugar dissolves. Set aside.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots, stir-fry until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Step 4
Add sliced chicken and cubed tofu. Stir-fry until chicken is cooked through and tofu is slightly browned.
Step 5
Push ingredients to one side, crack eggs into the empty space. Scramble until cooked, then mix with chicken and tofu.
Step 6
Add drained noodles and the prepared sauce. Toss constantly for 2-3 minutes until noodles are coated and softened.
Step 7
Stir in bean sprouts and half of the chives. Cook for another minute until sprouts are slightly wilted.
Step 8
Serve immediately, garnished with crushed peanuts, remaining chives, a lime wedge, and chili flakes.
