Quick, easy and very tasty. A chicken and noodle dish, for all peanut butter lovers. Child friendly as well. Adapted from a Family Circle recipe. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon peanut oil |
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into small pieces |
3 minced garlic cloves |
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter |
2 cups water |
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or to taste) |
2 (3 ounce) packages chicken-flavored ramen noodles, using only 1 packet of the seasonings |
1 cup vegetables, of choice (i use frozen peas) |
3 thinly sliced green onions |
Directions:
1. In skillet, heat oil on med high. Stir-fry chicken and garlic 3 or so minutes. Remove the chicken. Spoon peanut butter into skillet. Whisk in water, vinegar, soy sauce, pepper flakes and 1 seasoning packet from noodles. Do not use both packets (strong flavor).
2. Bring to a boil: add noodles breaking them up slightly. Add cooked chicken and cover. Simmer 4 minute to separate noodles. sprinkle with veggies cover and simmer 3 more minute Stir. Add green onions on top. I also added some chopped peanuts on top. Serve and enjoy! Just as good the next day.
