Quick Thai Peanut Noodles

This is a recipe from Our Best Bites. Don't be scared of peanut butter in the sauce--although it sounds gross, it's a pretty solid staple in peanut-sauce-y dishes because of it's smooth texture and intense peanut flavor. Even better, it's fresh, quick, easy, relatively healthy. This is a short version to my Thai Chicken Peanut Noodle recipe

Quick Thai Peanut Noodles

1/2 c. chicken broth
3 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
1-2 tsp. Sriracha chili sauce (1 is mild with a bite, 1.5 is medium, 2 is hot)you can substitute 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 1 tsp if you want it spicier
1 1/2 Tbsp. honey3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 1/2 Tbsp. fresh minced ginger
2-3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
8 oz. linguine noodles
Chopped green onions
Chopped cilantro
2 limes, cut into quarters
Chopped peanuts
Cook noodles in salted water. In the meantime, combine chicken broth, peanut butter, chili sauce, honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk until smooth and remove from heat. Toss cooked noodles with sauce and divide among 4 bowls. Sprinkle with green onions, cilantro, chopped peanuts, and garnish each serving with 2 lime quarters. Before ating, squeeze lime juice over noodles and stir to combine.
*If desired, you can add meat to this dish by stir-frying shrimp or very thinly-sliced chicken (partially freeze it first) in some olive oil with a couple cloves of garlic, some fresh ginger, some green onions, soy sauce, and a small squirt or two of Sriracha chili sauce.
