These spicy chicken noodles are so easy to make, saucy, subtly sweet with hints of peanut butter and completely gluten free. They're ready to eat in about 30 minutes and perfect for a simple weeknight dinner.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook noodles according to package instructions. Cook al dente because we will continue to cook the noodles in the sauce.
Heat the sesame oil in a pot and add the chicken.
Cook until browned and completely cooked through.
Add in the ginger and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add in the honey, peanut butter, tomato paste, chili paste, tamari and rice vinegar.
Saute for about 5 minutes to let the flavors blend.
Add in the water and bring to a low boil. Simmer for about 10 minutes to thicken.
Once thickened, add in the noodles. Simmer to allow all of the flavors to blend.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, chopped peanuts and red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
Notes
I used white rice noodles, but any kind will work!
