Asian Sesame Chicken and Noodles


2 tsp. garlic
1/2 c. rice vinegar
1/2 c. soy sauce
2 tsp. Hoisin sauce
3/4 c. brown sugar
2 tsp. sesame oil
1 T. sesame seeds
1/2 tsp. ginger
pinch of red pepper flakes
1 T. peanut butter
2 T. hot water
5 chicken breasts, cut into long strips

Sesame Noodles:
Use half of the marinade above for noodles
12 oz. thin spaghetti or angel hair
green onion, thinly sliced
carrots, thinly sliced

Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl (you may need to microwave peanut butter to get it to stir in easily). Pour half of the marinade mixture into a ziploc bag and add strips of chicken. Marinate for 2-8 hours. Reserve the other half of the marinade for the noodles. Grill chicken.

For the sesame noodles, cook noodles al dente, drain and pour into a bowl. Slice the green onions and carrots and add to the pasta with the reserved half recipe of marinade. Toss and serve with grilled chicken.
