Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water up to a boil for your pasta.

Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook until opaque and pink, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium and add soy sauce, green onions and garlic. Saute 1-2 minutes, until the garlic is beginning to soften and become fragrant. Add chicken stock and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to low and add peanut butter, sesame oil, lime juice, and red pepper. Whisk together until it creates a smooth sauce and simmer for 5-8 minutes.

Cook pasta according to the package directions. Before draining, reserve 1 cup of pasta water and set aside. Drain pasta and add it into the skillet. Toss well so that the noodles are completely coated, adding more pasta water if needed to thin the sauce out.

Divide pasta into bowls and top with shrimp, cilantro, and chopped peanuts.
