Ingredients
- 16 oz pasta
For the Sauce
- 1 cup natural peanut butter unsweetened
- 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Chili garlic sauce more or less to taste
- 2 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 3 garlic cloves pressed or grated
- 1 tablespoon ginger root grated
For garnish (all optional)
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 1 TBSP sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup salted peanuts, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to package instructions. Before draining, reserve one cup of the pasta water and set aside.
- Combine all ingredients for the peanut sauce. Whisk to fully combine.
- After draining pasta, add peanut sauce. Stir into noodles, adding pasta water a little bit at a time until desired consistency is reached. You will most likely only need about 1/4 cup of the pasta water, not all of it.
- Serve and garnish with green onions, sesame seeds and crushed peanuts if desired.
