Thai Peanut Stir Fry with Noodles

I came across this recipe last week from one of my favorite food blogs, "Favorite Family Recipes" and thought it was fantastic. I would caution you to go a bit easy on the hot sauce if you don't like spicy. We found that the left overs seemed even more spicy the next day. This recipe is definitely restaurant quality and is very quick to make!

1-2 pounds chicken, cut into strips
vegetable oil (to saute)
2 T Sriracha chili sauce (easily found in the Asian section of grocery store, or can use a hot chili sauce that you like)
juice of 1 lime
3 cloves of garlic
1 T fresh ginger, minced
3-4 shakes of soy sauce
salt and pepper, to taste
16 oz. linguine noodles (I used Taiwanese noodles, but any noodle should work)
peanut sauce (see below for recipe)
peanuts
veggies of choice (shredded carrots, broccoli, green onion, bean sprouts, or any favorite stir fry veggies)

In a large skillet, saute chicken in a small amount of oil, and add chili sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, salt and pepper. While the chicken is cooking, prepare the noodles and make the peanut sauce. After the chicken is cooked, set aside and cover to keep warm. Re-oil the skillet and cook the vegetables, with the exception of green onion or bean sprouts until the very end so they don't get over cooked (you will want the veggies still a bit crisp). After the veggies are cooked, add chicken, noodles, and peanut sauce. Garnish with chopped peanuts.

Peanut Sauce:
1 c chicken broth
6 T (heaping) creamy peanut butter
2-4 tsp. chili sauce
3 T honey
6 T soy sauce
3 T fresh ginger, minced
4-5 cloves of garlic, minced

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until sauce peanut butter melts and sauce blends well.
