Instructions
- Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- To a medium bowl, add the rice wine vinegar, honey, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, lime juice, chili-garlic sauce, ginger (some people are sensitive to ginger so add to taste), and whisk to combine; set sauce aside.
- To a large skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil, peppers, and cook over medium-high heat until peppers begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir intermittently.
- Add the sugar snap peas, baby corn, water chestnuts, green onions, and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir intermittently.
- Add the cooked spaghetti, sauce, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until warmed through. Toss well during cooking. Note - Any extra sauce that’s pooling at the bottom of the skillet will absorb into the noodles as time passes so don't be alarmed now.
- Evenly sprinkle with cilantro and toss to combine. Optionally garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve immediately.
