Thai Peanut Chicken Bowls

I love a shortcut dinner hack! These bowls feature caramelized peanut chicken, a tangle of vermicelli noodles, fresh herbs and cucumber salad, and peanut sauce all over top.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Marinate the chicken with half the jar of sauce and the garlic for about 30 minutes to an hour.

  2. Meanwhile, toss the cucumbers, onions, oil, vinegar, salt and sugar together.

  3. Heat a small amount of oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat; add chicken, let it sit undisturbed for a few minutes to caramelize, then flip and repeat until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. To caramelize it further, you can add a pinch of sugar towards the end.

  4. Serve the chicken over rice noodles, with some of the cucumber salad, fresh herbs, and peanuts.

  5. Using your remaining sauce, add a bit of water, soy sauce, or chili oil to the jar to thin it out into more of a dressing. Drizzle over the bowls and dive into that.
