Cold Thai Chicken Noodle Recipe

I gotta be honest with you...I wasn't sure if my husband was going to like this. 

Guess what? He does! Yeah! Another recipe in the rotation!

This was seriously delicious. I love peanut sauce. It can be served hot or cold. We prefer cold. 

Ingredients: 

• About 2 lbs chicken tenders, salt & pepper, cooked, chopped, cooled
• 1 lb asparagus, trim off woodsy ends, cut into 1 inch pieces
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 lb spaghetti, thin, thick, linguine, whole wheat..whatever you like
• 1/4 cup dry roasted peanuts, chopped
• 2 scallions, sliced
• 1/4 tsp sesame seeds

For the sauce: 

• 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
• 2 tbsp. peanut butter
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tbsp. sesame oil
• 1 tbsp. honey
• 1 tbsp. brown sugar
• 1 tsp red chili paste with garlic

Directions: 

1. Cook the chicken, set aside.
2. Chop the asparagus, set aside. 
3. Whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce, set aside. 
4. In a large skillet, saute the asparagus for a few minutes. 
5. Add the pasta. Toss. 
6. Add the chicken. Toss.
7. Add the sauce. 
8. Mix together till incorporated. 
9. Add the peanuts. 
10. Toss well and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds
    
    Don't forget the sesame seeds like I did :)

Like I said, you can put this in the fridge to serve cold or pile it on plates right away and eat it hot!
