Ground Turkey Pad Thai (my recipe)

i've been eating thai food this week about 5 times.  today i'm making ground turkey pad thai.  the reason i'm making it ground is this dish clings to the noodles better than pieces.  that's just my take on it. 

1 lb. udon or rice noodles (preferably rice)
1 lb. ground turkey
2 - 3 scrambled eggs (cooked separately)
chopped scallions
1 can bean sprouts (Asian Gourmet™ or Thai Kitchen™)
1/2 cup crushed peanuts (use this to put in the sauce)
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
cayenne pepper
salt/pepper
3 - 4 cloves minced garlic
1/4 cup chicken both
1/4 cup fish sauce
about 1 tbsp stir fry oil
about 1 tbsp canola oil or vegetable oil
about 1 tbsp sesame oil
soy sauce
1/4 cup peanut sauce (Asian Gourmet™ or Thai Kitchen™)
a few dabs of any hot sauce

cook the noodles.

in a pot put the stir fry oil, canola oil, and sesame oil.  cook the ground turkey til done.  added all other ingredients and the white part of the scallion only.  you may want the green scallions on top of the finished dish.







finish with green scallions and crushed peanuts!
