Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup smooth natural-style peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 fresh lime (2 Tbsp juice)
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 13.5 oz. can coconut milk
  • 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (about ⅔ lb.)
  • 1 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the peanut sauce first. In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, sriracha, brown sugar, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
  • Add the coconut milk to the peanut sauce and whisk until smooth again.
  • Cut the chicken breast into small ½ to 1-inch sized pieces.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Once hot, add the cooking oil and swirl to coat the surface of the skillet. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides.
  • Add the prepared peanut sauce into the skillet, turn the heat down to medium-low, and stir to dissolve any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce over low, stirring occasionally, while you cook the noodles.
  • Cook your noodles according to the package directions, then drain in a colander.
  • Add the cooked and drained noodles to the skillet with the peanut sauce and chicken. Toss until everything is evenly mixed and coated in sauce.
  • Top the noodles with chopped peanuts and cilantro, then enjoy!
