Quick and creamy peanut butter noodles, combining savory-sweet flavors with a touch of sesame, perfect for a fast weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz noodles (spaghetti or rice noodles)
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup water (or as needed for consistency)
  • Vegetables (like bell peppers, carrots, or snap peas)
  • Optional protein (chicken, shrimp, or beef)

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and water until smooth.
  3. Heat a large pan over medium. Add the cooked noodles and pour the peanut sauce over them. Toss quickly to coat.
  4. Stir in vegetables and any optional protein, cooking just until heated through, about 2–4 minutes.
  5. Serve warm and garnish with toppings like chopped scallions or crushed peanuts.

Notes

For best texture, refrigerate peanut sauce separately from noodles. Reheat gently with a splash of water to loosen sauce. Not recommended for freezing.
