Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed or sliced into strips
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups carrots, sliced into matchsticks
  • 1 bunch green onions, sliced
  • 12-16 oz Thai peanut sauce
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup basil, sliced (Thai or traditional)
  • 3/4 cup dry roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 16 oz linguine

Instructions
 

  • Cook linguine according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Place chicken in a medium-sized bowl then add garlic powder, onion powder, ginger, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium-high. Add olive oil. Add chicken to the pan and cook for 5 minutes. Add carrots and green onions to the pan then continue cooking until chicken is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add peanut sauce to chicken then stir to combine. Continue cooking for a few minutes until sauce is simmering. Add cilantro, basil and cooked noodles. Toss to combine. Serve with peanuts sprinkled on top.

Notes

  1. If the noodles seem a little dry after combining them with the sauce, add ¼-½ cup of water to the pan and warm through.
