Ingredients
- 12 oz whole wheat spaghetti
- 2 carrots, halved and thinly sliced
- 2 tsp vegetable oil
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced
- 1/3 cup hoisin sauce
- 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 2 tbsp cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce
- 4 cups leaf lettuce, shredded
- 1-1/2 cups bean sprouts
- 2/3 cup red onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh coriander or parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
Preparation
In large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm, about 8 minutes. Add carrots; cook for 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water; set aside in colander.
In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; stir-fry chicken until browned and no longer pink inside, 4 minutes.
In large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup (125 mL) water, hoisin sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, garlic and hot pepper sauce until smooth. Add pasta mixture, chicken and any accumulated juices, lettuce (if using), bean sprouts, onion and 3/4 cup (175 mL) of the coriander; toss. Sprinkle with peanuts and remaining coriander.
