Time 10m

Yield 4 plates, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 inches fresh ginger, minced
2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons peanut butter (natural or organic)
1 -2 dash rice vinegar
2 -3 dashes hot sauce (Tabasco)
1 teaspoon salt
8 -10 ounces Asian noodles, preferably soba
2 tablespoons sesame oil
sprinkles of black and white sesame seeds

Steps:

Mix the first 8 ingredients together in a nonreactive bowl and set aside.
Cook your noodles in a large pot of boiling water, following the directions on the package (probably for 3-5 minutes). Drain and rinse well with cold water. Return to pot and mix noodles with 2 tablespoons sesame oil.
If you want to eat your noodles cold, let them cool in the oil before mixing the peanut sauce with them. This will help the flavors stay bright. If you're eating them right away, mix the peanut sauce in right away and enjoy. Sprinkle sesame seeds on individual portions for extra flavor and crunch.

Tips:

Use high-quality peanut butter: The peanut butter is the star of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality brand that you enjoy the taste of. A natural peanut butter with no added sugar or salt is a good option.
Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant.
Add vegetables for extra nutrition: If you want to add more vegetables to this dish, consider adding some shredded carrots, bell peppers, or snow peas. These vegetables will add color, crunch, and nutrients to the noodles.
Adjust the spiciness to your liking: The amount of Sriracha sauce you add to this dish will determine how spicy it is. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the Sriracha sauce altogether or use a milder hot sauce.
Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or basil, add a pop of color and flavor to this dish. If you have some on hand, be sure to garnish your noodles with them before serving.

Conclusion:

Peanut Butter Sesame Noodles is easy to make, delicious, and a great way to use up leftover chicken. The peanut butter sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the noodles are perfectly cooked. This dish is also a good source of protein and fiber. If you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, this is the perfect recipe for you.
