The ingredients for Quick Tofu Pad Thai are:

3 oz. dried wide (pad thai) rice noodles
2 Tbs. fish sauce
2 Tbs. granulated sugar
1 Tbs. soy sauce
1 tsp. hoisin sauce
1 tsp. chile-garlic sauce (such as Lee Kum Kee brand)
1 tsp. vegetable oil
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 package firm tofu
1 4-oz. can fire-roasted whole green chiles (such as Ortega brand), drained and sliced into long, very thin slivers (to yield 1/2 cup)
1-1/2 cups bean sprouts
2 Tbs. crushed unsalted roasted peanuts
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
10 mint leaves, torn into small pieces
1 lime, cut into wedges for serving

Here is how you make Quick Tofu Pad Thai:

Submerge wide (pad thai) rice noodles in a bowl of very warm (110?F) water and soak until they?re pliable but still rather firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prep the rest of the ingredients. Drain the noodles in a colander (no need to pat dry).In a small bowl, combine the fish sauce, sugar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and chile-garlic sauce.Once the noodles are drained, heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet or stir-fry pan over high heat until very hot. Add the garlic, stir, and immediately add the tofu. Stir-fry until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the fish sauce mixture. Stir to mix for about 20 seconds, then add the chile slivers and the noodles. Stir-fry until the noodles are tender and the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. If the noodles are too firm, add 1 Tbs. of water and cook another minute. Add the bean sprouts and stir-fry until they?re slightly limp, 1 to 2 min. Transfer to a serving platter or individual plates, and garnish with the peanuts, cilantro, and mint. Serve immediately, with lime wedges on the side.Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user BREEHARDY.
