Peanut Thai Noodle Dish


I made this a couple of nights ago and it turned out so yummy I wanted to share it! 

1/3 cup Lime juice [I used bottled]
1/3 cup Low sodium soy sauce
3 tbs Honey
1 tsp of Chinese hot chili sauce (you can find this in the Asian section at the grocery store)
2 tbs creamy or crunchy peanut butter
8 oz. Fusilli Pasta, uncooked (you could use any type of pasta)
2-3 Carrots cut into matchstick strips, about 1 cup
1 cup Sugar snap peas
1 can of water chestnuts
Small red pepper cut into match stick strips, about 1 cup
2-3 Chicken breasts cut into small squares
Cooking spray

Preparation

You can do the first (2) steps earlier in the day if you have time.
Step 1: PLACE lime juice, soy sauce, honey, peanut butter, and
chili sauce in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. Place the dish in microwave
to soften the peanut butter then mix more. 
Step 2: CUT up carrots and red pepper. Put the vegetables together
in another dish and set aside for later.
Step 3: COOK cubed chicken on stove top using cooking spray or
a very small amount of olive oil until the chicken is golden brown. 
Step 4: COOK pasta as directed on package, adding the vegetable
during last 3 minutes of cooking time. Drain pasta and vegetables.
Step 5: TOSS pasta and veggies with the cooked chicken and
peanut sauce. 
Step 6: SERVE and ENJOY
