    • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
    • 1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce
    • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
    • 1 ½ teaspoons seasoned rice vinegar
    • ¼ teaspoon white sugar

  • Pasta Salad

    • ½ (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
    • ½ cup frozen peas, thawed
    • ¼ cup shredded carrots
    • ¼ cup thinly sliced red bell pepper
    • 3 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    • 2 tablespoons dry-roasted peanuts

STEPS

1

Whisk sesame oil, vegetable oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, fish sauce, chili-garlic sauce, lime juice, rice vinegar, and sugar together in a small bowl until well combined. Set aside.

2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain pasta, rinse with cold water, and return to the pot.

3

Drizzle dressing over pasta and stir gently to combine. Add peas, carrots, bell pepper, green onions, cilantro, peanuts, and red pepper flakes; stir until well combined.

4

Serve at room temperature with lime wedges, or chill in the refrigerator and serve cold.
