Spicy Thai Peanut Chick'n & Sweet Potato Noodle Stir-Fry

I saw this recipe online a few weeks ago and wanted to make it vegan. I had everything in the house and decided it would be dinner one night last week. I really like the spiralized sweet potato. The sauce was really good and this comes together pretty quick, but this would be super fast if you used a store bought Peanut Sauce.


Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons Bragg's liquid aminos
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 garlic clove, finely minced
  • 1-2 tablespoons Sriracha Sauce, use the amount you like
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 3/4 cup soymilk
For the Stir-Fry:
  • 3 medium sweet potatoes (mine were skinny so I used 4), peeled
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil, divided
  • 1 package Gardein Teriyaki Chick'n Strips (save sauce for some time later)
  • 2 1/2 cups broccoli, florets
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
  • Garnish: green onion, chopped peanuts, cilantro if desired


Make sauce: In a mdium bowl whisk together all of the sauce ingredients. Set aside.

Cut the ends off of the sweet potatoes and spiralize them. If you don't have a spiralizer you can use a julienne peeler to make noodles. Set aside.

Cut each chick'n strip into 4 pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Heat 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Once oil is hot, add chick'n pieces and cook 4-6 minutes until starting to brown. Remove and set aside.

To the same skillet add the other 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil along with broccoli florets and red pepper strips. Stir-fry about 2-3 minutes.

Add Sweet potato noodles and cook 2-3 minutes longer.

Add the peanut sauce and chick'n; stir well to coat everything. Reduce heat to medium low and cook a few minutes until sweet potato noodles are al dente. 

Garnish as desired and enjoy. Serves 4.
