spicy peanut soba noodle salad
DESCRIPTION
Spicy Peanut Soba Noodle Salad featuring red
peppers, cabbage, chicken, soba noodles, and a quick homemade spicy peanut
sauce. Salads don’t get much yummier than this.
INGREDIENTS
For the Spicy Peanut Sauce:
·
5 tablespoons peanut butter
·
5 tablespoons water
·
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
For the Salad:
·
1 lb. chicken breast
·
1 red bell
pepper
·
3-4 cups chopped purple cabbage
·
fresh cilantro or basil to taste
·
crushed peanuts for topping
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Spicy Peanut Sauce: 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).
2. Chicken: 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.
3. Vegetables: Chop the red pepper,
cabbage, and cilantro to your desired size for the salad.
4. Noodles: Cook the noodles according
to package directions (usually just boiling for a few minutes).
5. Assemble: Toss everything together
with enough dressing to generously coat everything. Serve hot or cold!
NOTES
If you’re making this ahead of time, toss everything
together except the veggies. Those are best when added just before serving.
As written, this recipe is heavy on the noodles. If you
want a higher chicken/veg to noodles ratio, you could double the amount of
chicken, or vegetables, or whatever you want.
Sometimes
I double the sauce because I am a sauce hog. In my opinion, you can never go
wrong with extra peanut sauce in the fridge.
