Cooking Steps
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil (large pot for 4 servings). Wash and dry produce.
Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
In a small bowl, combine scallion whites, chili sauce, half the soy sauce, half the sesame oil, and half the vinegar (all the soy sauce, all the sesame oil, and all the vinegar for 4).
Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 4-6 minutes. Drain.
Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and carrots in an even layer. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until carrots are browned and chicken is cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
Turn off heat. Add sauce to pan; stir to combine.
Transfer drained noodles to pan with chicken mixture; toss to combine.
Divide noodles and chicken between shallow bowls. Garnish with scallion greens and peanuts. Drizzle with as much Sriracha as you like. Serve.

- Suggestions: Consider adding veggies like broccoli or bok choy for more substance and color. Use less sweet chili sauce if desired.
- Portions: Some felt the noodle-to-chicken ratio was off; try using fewer noodles or doubling the meat for better balance.
- Texture: The thin vermicelli noodles divided opinions; some loved them, while others preferred thicker noodles for better sauce absorption.
Reviews from our home cooks
I've tried so many times to make noodles like this and failed. This recipe was easy, full proof, and delicious! Another family favorite! Next time I will double the meat though because it made a ton of noodles and didn't quite have enough goodies in it. Also gf if you have gf soy sauce at home to swap out
Now, the sauce of the other vermicelli bowl was great. But this was better. I save a few of the spring rolls and set aside a bit of THIS sauce and it was a perfect dip - especially with the crunch of the scallion. No other notes.
The vermicelli noodles were excellent in this dish. I am not a fan of chicken, but it worked well in this recipe.
I really enjoyed the vermicelli noodles. I added broccoli to make this a heartier meal <3 yum
SO good, a new favorite! Perfectly spicy, good combo of noodles and chicken
love this style noodle. sauce was a little sweet, wish I would have only used 3 of 4 packets. glad there was 1 siracha packet per serving.
Love the crunch of the peanuts with the noodles. Could use more sauce.
It is mostly my fault, but the noodles came out over-cooked and the carrots were under-cooked. Next time, I would start the carrots before the chicken and before putting the noodles in the water, that way the timing might line up better.
Favorite recipe so far. Better than some pad thai I've had at restaurants.
The taste was great. Perhaps the ratio of noodles to chicken and sauce was a little high.
