Asian Peanut Noodles with Chicken
This is a quick and easy weeknight dinner that can be made in 30 minutes or less. I still remember the first time I saw a noodle dish with a peanut sauce on it. I have to admit it intrigued me. It did seem a little strange to me but decided to try it and fell in love with it with right away. I was out at the time and every time I went to that restaurant I ordered it. Then a friend sent me this recipe and I tried it right away. I was amazed at how easy and quick it was to make.
Don’t let the long list of ingredients stop you from making this. If you notice many of the ingredients that are in the sauce are with the chicken also. When you make dishes like this you should assemble all of the ingredients first before starting to make your dish. It will then come all together in about 10 minutes.
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 5 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 16 oz chicken breast, cut into thin strips
- salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
- juice and zest of 1/2 lime
- 5 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 8 oz. noodles
- 1/4 cup green onion, chopped
- 1 1/4 cups shredded carrots
- 1 1/4 cups shredded broccoli slaw
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 3 tablespoons chopped peanuts
- 1 lime, sliced
- handful cilantro - chopped
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil to cook the noodles. When it comes to a boil cook the noodles according to package directions. When cooked drain well.
- Mix together all of the sauce ingredients in a small pan. Cook, stirring often until it thickens. Set aside when it does..
- Season chicken with salt and pepper, sriracha, lime, garlic, ginger and soy sauce.
- Heat a large skillet until hot. Add oil and sauté chicken on high heat until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and to the noodles with the peanut sauce. Toss to combine. When the chicken is done add it.
- Add to the pan 2 cloves crushed garlic, scallions, carrots, broccoli slaw and/or bean sprouts and salt, sauté until tender crisp, about 1-2 minutes. Add to the chicken and noodles.
- Serve with limes on the side.

I’ve got to give this a try. I just bought some soba noodles that would be the perfect noodle to use in this dish! YUM!
I bet they would be great in it! I happened to have fresh so I used that.
These sounds fabulous! Can’t wait to try out the recipe!
I’m with you on this one! I was skeptical at first too, but once I tried it there was no going back! Great tip on assembling all of your ingredients too! It makes things go so much quicker! Thanks, Mary Ellen!
Totally agree Marion! I have to assemble it first because it goes together so fast if I didn’t I’d never find it in time or grate it in time. LOL
The whole family would love this. Great recipe!

What type of noodles do you use? This looks wonderful and I will be making this as I have all ingredients but not sure on the noodles.
I used a hong kong noodle, you could also use rice noodles.
