Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the wide rice noodles according to the package instructions, usually boiling for about 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  2. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic to the hot oil and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant and lightly golden.
  4. Toss in sliced red bell pepper and green beans, stir-frying for about 2-3 minutes until tender yet crisp.
  5. Add your chosen protein to the skillet and cook through for about 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently until fully cooked.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and sugar until well combined.
  7. Add the drained noodles to the skillet, pouring the sauce over the top. Toss gently for about 2-3 minutes until evenly coated and heated through.
  8. Stir in fresh basil leaves and sliced bird chilies, cooking for an additional minute.
  9. Squeeze lime juice over the noodles and toss for an even balance of flavor.
  10. Plate the Street Style Thai Drunken Noodles immediately, garnishing with extra basil if desired.
