Thai Chicken, Shrimp & Noodles

Food 033
Adapted from All Recipes

Remember the Thai Stew that I raved about....it was one of the very first recipes posted?  This dish has a very similar flavor, so basically this meal is to die for as well.  Really, I love peanut butter.  Love, love, love peanut butter and it is amazing mixed with soy sauce and honey.  I'm already thinking about when I can make this meal again.  My husband was equally enthusiastic.  This recipe is one of our new favorites. 

Ingredients:

  • ½ lb cooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1-2 large chicken breasts, cooked and cut into chunks
  • 8 oz uncooked angel hair pasta
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 4 Tbs minced fresh cilantro
  • 4 Tbs peanut butter
  • 2 Tbs honey
  • 2 Tbs soy sauce
  • 2 tsp ginger
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup julienned carrots
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 2 Tbs vegetable oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Peanuts to garnish
Directions:

  • Cook pasta according to package directions.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the broth, cilantro, peanut butter, honey, soy sauce, ginger, and pepper flakes; set aside.  In a large skillet, sauté carrots, bell pepper, and onions in vegetable oil for 2-3 minutes or until crisp tender.
  • Add shrimp and chicken to vegetables; cook for 2-3 minutes or until heated through.  Drain pasta and place in a large bowl.  Add shrimp mixture and peanut butter mixture; toss to coat.  Salt to taste and garnish with peanuts.
