Spicy Thai Peanut Noodles

We put our own spin on peanut sauce for these Thai inspired peanut noodles. They're a bit spicy, with loads of flavor and texture thanks to the peanuts, cilantro, soy, and sesame.

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook noodles according to package directions.
  2. While noodles are cooking, heat the sesame oil and red pepper flakes over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Do not let the oil smoke.
  3. Strain through a fine mesh strainer, discarding the pepper flakes and saving the oil. Stir the soy sauce, honey, and peanut butter into the oil until smooth and creamy.
  4. When noodles have finished cooking, drain liquid and toss the noodles in the oil mixture.
  5. Toss with the peanuts, green onions, and cilantro.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Be sure you do not burn the oil. If it begins to smoke, toss it and start over or it will add a burnt flavor to the dish.
  • The dish is fairly spicy as is. Reduce the red pepper flakes if desired.
  • We sometimes add leftover rotisserie chicken to this dish as an easy way to add protein.
