Recipe type: Main
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 can sliced waterchestnuts
  • snowpeas, ends trimmed, about 1 cup
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips (any color works)
  • 1 red onion, sliced into strips
  • baby carrots, sliced into rounds, about 1 cup
  • 2 packages (about 7 oz) refrigerated, cooked stir fry noodles
  • 1 - 11.5 oz bottle Tsang Bangkok Peanut Sauce (or other Thai peanut sauce)
  • 1 to 1⅓ c low sodium chicken broth (to taste)
  • 7 T peanut butter
  • ¼ c chopped peanuts
Instructions
  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Cook on a medium-high grill pan or grill for 4 minutes per side until the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
  2. Allow the chicken to cool. Chop into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Whisk together Thai peanut sauce, Bangkok sauce, chicken broth, and peanut butter. Taste and adjust - more peanut butter will cut any heat in the Bangkok sauce.
  4. Heat a large saute pan over high heat and add about a Tablespoon vegetable until it's shimmering. Add the veggies - waterchestnuts, snow peas, bell pepper, onion and carrots - to the pan. Stir fry veggies until they are tender crisp and develop a little browning.
  5. Reduce heat to medium. Add in the noodles, discarding any seasoning package if it came with the noodles. Mix together noodles & veggies.
  6. Pour over the peanut sauce mixture.
  7. Add the chicken.
  8. Stir together and allow to cook a couple minutes to heat through.
  9. Serve with chopped peanuts on top.
  10. To Freeze: Stop before adding peanuts. Transfer to a freezer to oven container (I love disposable aluminum pans), cover with tinfoil. I like to add the peanuts in a small plastic bag and cover with another layer of tinfoil to keep it all together.
  11. Thaw in the fridge overnight. Bake at 375 for 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of your pan.
