Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces green beans, trimmed and halved
1 pound dried linguine
1/2 cup canned coconut milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon hot chile oil
Juice of 1 lime plus 1 lime cut into wedges
2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 cup salted roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped

Steps:

  • Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and mostly cooked through, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the green beans and saute until slightly brown but still bright green, about 2 more minutes.
  • Cook the pasta to al dente according to the directions on the package.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce. Whisk together the coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, sugar, chile oil, lime juice and 1/3 cup water in a medium bowl or large measuring cup (the peanut butter will not fully incorporate). Set aside.
  • Add the ginger and garlic to the skillet with the chicken and beans. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the curry powder and stir until toasted, about 20 seconds.
  • Pour the coconut milk mixture into the skillet, making sure to get all of the peanut butter out of the bowl. Scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet and cook until the sauce boils and thickens slightly, about 4 minutes.
  • Drain the pasta and pour into the skillet, then carefully toss to coat. Gently tip the pasta onto a serving platter. Garnish with peanuts, cilantro and lime wedges.

PEANUT (OR PEANUT BUTTER) GINGER CHICKEN



Peanut (Or Peanut Butter) Ginger Chicken image

Delicious flavorful chicken dish that is as fast and easy to make as it is tasty! All amounts are approximate and can be tweaked to suit your tastes, I typically make a little more of the sauce. This recipe is originally from Jaylene at Nibbledish.com, I've changed the amounts to what I use for a family of 4.

Provided by JayDubs

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2-2 lbs chicken breasts
4 tablespoons peanut butter (Creamy or Chunky)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons white vinegar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus some (for cooking)
3 -4 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons ginger
salt and pepper
water (optional)
parsley flakes (optional) or fresh parsley (optional)
sesame seeds (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, prepare the peanut butter sauce. Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and 2 Tbs. olive oil together and stir until you form a smooth paste.
  • Dice garlic and ginger as fine as you can get them, I use a grater with small holes and grate my garlic so that there are no large chunks for those that don't care to bite into a large piece of garlic.
  • Cube your chicken into small bite sized pieces or cut into small strips if you prefer.
  • In a pan, heat up some olive oil (I usually use about 2 Tbs.) add the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds depending on how hot you got the olive oil. Then add the chicken, season to your taste with salt and pepper, and cook until completely cooked through.
  • Add the sauce mixture and stir to coat all of the chicken. Reduce heat to a medium low and cook for an additional 5 to 10 minutes stirring frequently. If the sauce starts to become too think or clumps together add small amounts of water and stir to keep a nice consistency. The sauce should coat the chicken without being soupy.
  • Remove the pan from heat and serve the chicken over rice. Garnish with parsley or sesame seeds if you wish.

Categories     Salad     100+ Pasta Salad Recipes     Chicken Pasta Salad Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

⅓ cup smooth peanut butter
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Asian garlic-chili sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger root
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons low-sodium chicken broth
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (16 ounce) package uncooked linguine pasta
3 ½ cups cooked chicken, cut into strips
1 cup julienne-sliced carrot
6 green onions, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips
1 celery rib, thinly sliced
½ cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
½ cup chopped roasted peanuts, for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the dressing, place the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili-garlic sauce, brown sugar, ginger, red pepper flakes, and 3 tablespoons of chicken broth together in a blender or bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin the dressing to your taste by adding more chicken broth or water.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and place pasta into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the chicken, carrots, green onions, red pepper, celery, and cilantro to the bowl with the linguine. Pour the dressing over the noodle-chicken mixture and toss until mixture is evenly coated. Divide the salad among eight serving plates, and sprinkle peanuts over each serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta. A hearty pasta, such as penne or rotini, will hold up well to the sauce.
  • Use fresh ginger. Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger.
  • Toast the peanuts. Toasting the peanuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time. The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the pasta with a sprinkle of chopped peanuts and cilantro. This will add extra flavor and texture to the dish.

Conclusion:

Ginger peanut chicken pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and can be made with ingredients that you probably already have on hand. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this recipe a try.
