Peanut Noodles With Chicken
Description
Peanut Noodles With Chicken mixes tender linguine noodles with sliced cooked chicken and crisp ribbons of carrot, cucumber, and bell pepper. Fresh green onions and chopped cilantro add brightness to the dish. The peanut dressing, blended smooth with garlic, ginger, peanut butter, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, and a touch of chile sauce, delivers a balance of savory, nutty, tangy, and mildly spicy notes. Tossing the cooled noodles and vegetables with this creamy sauce creates a satisfying texture contrast between the soft noodles and crunchy vegetables.
The recipe is prepared by cooking and cooling the noodles first, then combining them with the vegetables before pouring on the blended peanut dressing. This salad-like dish works well as a light lunch or easy dinner, especially on warmer days. It can be garnished with extra cilantro and green onions for added freshness.
