5 Ingredient Asian Peanut Noodles
5 Ingredient Asian Peanut Noodles feature tender spaghetti cooked directly in flavorful chicken stock, then dressed with soy sauce, peanut butter, and a touch of sriracha for balanced salty, creamy, and spicy notes. Optional crushed peanuts and sliced green onions add texture and freshness. This sauce-coated noodle dish can be served alone or with cooked chicken for added protein.
