Paleo Chicken Pad Thai

jump to recipe

Thai food is some of my absolute favorite food. I think I could eat it every day. Pad Thai is among the things I love. This version uses hearts of palm pasta from Palmini. You can find it in your local grocery store, I buy it at Smith’s, or online. Trader Joe’s carries a version as well. This recipe also calls for tamarind concentrate. You can find this in the Asian section of your grocery store. Be sure to read the label, you don’t want it to include sugar. If you can’t find tamarind concentrate and you aren’t on a Whole30, you can use honey as a  substitute.
