Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 2 packages (3 ounces each) ramen-style noodles
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into strips
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
- 2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
- 1/2 medium head of cabbage, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
Steps
Wash hands with soap and water.
Bring 4 cups water to boil in a 2 to 3 quart saucepan. Add noodles, cover, and remove from heat (do not add flavor packets). Wait one minute. Drain noodles and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine peanut butter, soy sauce and 1/2 cup water. Heat over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (350 degrees F in an electric skillet). Add chicken and cook until no longer pink when cut, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Add red pepper, ginger, and carrots and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add cabbage and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until cabbage is crisp-tender.
Stir in green onion, cooked noodles, and peanut sauce. Toss and serve right away.
