Recipe Summary Spicy Thai Peanut Noodles
This Thai peanut noodle dish is a delicious recipe with just the right amount of heat! It's simple to prepare, but requires a bit of organization while assembling/cooking, because it goes quickly. Preparing your ingredients beforehand is key! For vegetarians, you can make this without the chicken and fish sauce and it tastes just as good! Serve hot. You could also garnish this with chopped unsalted peanuts.Ingredients | Nongshim Spicy Chicken Noodles½ cup peanut butter6 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce3 ½ tablespoons rice vinegar3 tablespoons brown sugar3 tablespoons sesame oil2 red Thai chiles, seeded and finely chopped2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger1 teaspoon fish sauce¼ teaspoon ground black pepper3 tablespoons olive oil, divided1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 3/4-inch cubes1 cup matchstick carrots1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips4 green onions, thinly sliced2 cups bean sprouts, rinsed and drained¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro1 (16 ounce) package pad Thai rice noodles1 tablespoon chopped unsalted peanuts (Optional)DirectionsWhisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, Thai chiles, chile-garlic sauce, ginger, fish sauce, and pepper in a bowl until smooth.
