Description

Ingredients

• 2 Tablespoons sesame oil (youll need more for the peanut sauce below)1
• 2 teaspoons minced or chopped garlic
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 1 cup thinly sliced cabbage (I use red)
• 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced (I use red)
• 3 large zucchini, spiralized into noodles4
• 2 large chicken breasts, cooked & shredded (about 2-3 cups)2
• Toppings: 1 Tablespoon sesame seeds, handful of cilantro, 1/2 cup peanuts, chopped green onion
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/3 cup soy sauce (I use reduced sodium)
• 2 Tablespoons sesame oil1
• 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar3
• 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
• 1-2 teaspoons Sriracha or any hot chile sauce
• Spiralizer (I love the Inspiralizer!)4

Directions

• Heat 2 Tablespoons of sesame oil and the garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, cabbage, and pepper slices. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are a little tender. (I usually begin the peanut sauce, step 2, during this time.) Once tender, add the zucchini noodles and shredded chicken to the skillet. Cook and stir for about 3 minutes until the zucchini is a little softer and chicken is warm. Turn off the stove and remove from heat. Set aside. (*If your skillet isnt quite big enough, you can do this step in batches.) Combine all of the peanut sauce ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk constantly until the peanut butter has melted and everything is combined. I usually use 2 teaspoons of Sriracha, but use the amount of heat you like. Once the sauce is heated through, pour over chicken/vegetables. Toss everything around until combined. Place on a serving dish (or not!) and top with sesame seeds, cilantro, peanuts, and green onion. Serve immediately. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat to your liking.
