Sweet and Spicy Peanut Stir Fry

Ingredients

Spicy peanut sauce

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened powdered peanut butter
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos or soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Stir fry

  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 12 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 cup snap peas, halved
  • 4 servings noodles of choice, cooked according to package and drained
  • 2 tablespoons peanuts, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • lime wedges

Preparation

  1. Add all ingredients for the sauce to a bowl and whisk to combine. Adjust lime, maple, or chili sauce to taste.

  2. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium high heat. Add a small amount of oil or water if oil-free. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and sauté until fragrant. Add remaining veggies and sauté for 3 minutes until al dente.

  3. Rinse cooked noodles to remove excess starch. Drain and add noodles to the skillet with veggies. Drizzle with peanut sauce. Sauté for a minute or so to heat through.

  4. Serve hot. Garnish with peanuts and fresh cilantro.
