Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons peanut butter
- 5 tablespoons water
- 5 tablespoons soy sauce, or tamari for gluten free
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil (optional – for flavor)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/4 cup chili sauce like sriracha (more or less depending on spice tolerance)
- 1/2 cup peanuts
- 1 lb . chicken breast
- 1 red bell pepper
- 3 -4 cups chopped purple cabbage
- 10 ounces soba noodles
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro or basil to taste
- 1/4 cup crushed peanuts for topping
Steps
-
Puree sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender. Add the peanuts last so you can control how chunky it is (I like to leave it a little more on the chunky side).
-
Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium high heat. Season with salt and pepper. When the chicken is cooked through, set aside until cool enough to handle and shred the meat.
-
Chop the red pepper, cabbage, and cilantro to your desired size for the salad.
-
Cook the noodles according to package directions (usually just boiling for a few minutes).
-
Toss everything together with enough dressing to generously coat everything. Serve hot or cold!
