Preparation
Step 1
Cook pasta in salted water, according to package directions. Drain well and let dry (to keep water from diluting the dressing).
In a small bowl, whisk together sesame oil, canola oil, honey, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, rice wine vinegar, and cayenne. Season with salt.
In saute pan, over medium-high heat), heat a few tablespoons of dressing mix-- be careful as dressing burns easily. Add red peppers and saute 2-3 minutes, until barely soft (still want some crunch).
Add pepppers, remaining dressing, green onions, and peanuts to cooked pasta.
Add peas and cilantro just before serving. Can be served immediately (hot/room temperature) or chilled overnight and served cold. Serve lime wedges as garnish.
Can add chicken or shrimp, cooked in same dressing before or along with peppers.
