This is one of my favourite recipes! It’s essentially a one-bowl recipe that is simple to make and chalked full of flavour! I use natural peanut butter for a richer flavour. This also makes for a great double-date dinner. Serve with fresh bread.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons of grape seed oil
- 1 lb. of chicken tenders, diced (~ 3-4, depending on the size)
- 2 zucchini, spiraled using a spiralizer
- 1 large carrot, spiraled using a spiralizer
- 1 red pepper, julienned
- 1-2 handfuls of bean sprouts (depending on how many you like, I typically do more)
- ¼ cup of fresh cilantro, diced (I eyeball it and usually use a bit more)
- ¼ cup of green onions, diced
- sesame seeds for garnish
Spicy Peanut Sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced (I like to add a little extra)
- 4 tablespoons of peanut butter (I typically just eyeball it though
- juice of 1 lime
- 3 tablespoons of coconut aminos (soy sauce works just fine too)
- 2 tablespoons of fresh cilantro, diced or more
- ½ teaspoon of ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon overflowing with red pepper flakes
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together garlic, peanut butter, coconut aminos(soy sauce), lime juice, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Add grape seed oil and chicken tenders. Saute each side for 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit. Dice when cooled.
- In the same large skillet over medium high heat, add 2 tablespoons of grape seed oil, zucchini noodles, and carrot noodles. Flash stir fry for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove noodles and place in large bowl along with chicken, red pepper, bean sprouts, fresh cilantro, green onions, and spicy peanut sauce. Toss till all noodles are coated.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
