Asian Peanut Noodles with Chick'n

You know I'm a sucker for any Asian dish AND peanut sauce. I saw this recipe while surfing the web and knew it would be easy to make vegan. So here is my version. The first time I made it I used the bean sprouts - the second time I didn't have any. I really didn't miss them so don't let them keep you from making this dish. You could also just use the entire bag of broccoli slaw and call it a day. I think I'll do that next time. But I will make this again for sure.

Peanut Sauce:

• 14 ounces No Chicken - Chicken Broth
• 1/3 cup fresh peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Bragg's Liquid Amino Acids
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated 
• 3 cloves garlic, minced

Chick'n Mixture: 

• 1 package Gardein Teriyaki Chick'n Strips (save sauce for something else)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce

• 6 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Bragg's Liquid Amino Acids
