Your local Thai delivery person will wonder if you've moved... he or she won't hear from you once you learn how to make our version of pad thai. Rice noodles and sirloin steak are swirled in a sauce of spicy sambal and sweet teriyaki sauce, giving just the right amount of heat. Peanuts, cilantro, and green onions top the pad thai, bringing some traditional flavor to this dish. Your delivery person will just have to make new friends.
