Asian Takeout Style Noodles


Whenever I go to an Asian restaurant, I always have to have a noodle dish or it just wouldn't seem right. I am obessed with this meal. I got this recipe from http://www.ourbestbites.com/. I also like to add chicken to make it more substantial. Chances are, you probably don't have Sriracha chili sauce in your pantry, but it is well worth the trip to the grocery store to get it.  Trust me. -Christine


1/2 c. chicken broth
3 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
1 tsp. Sriracha chili sauce (It is the red bottle with the green cap in your asian food isle).
1 1/2 Tbsp. honey
3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 1/2 Tbsp. fresh minced ginger
2-3 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
8 oz. Udon or soba noodles (found in the Oriental/Asian food isle)
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 eating, squeeze lime juice over noodles and stir to combine.
