Preparation

Step 1

Cook the pasta according to directions. In the last few minutes of boiling time, add the carrots and cook until tender crisp. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a fry pan, saute the chicken with a bit of oil until golden and cooked through.

In a bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, peanut butter, 1/2 cup water, minced garlic, cider vinegar and hot sauce until smooth. Set aside.

In a large bowl, toss together the hot pasta and carrots, bean sprouts, onion, coriander, peanuts, and chicken. Drizzle the hoisin/peanut butter mixture over top and toss again.

Serve immediately.
