braised chicken, spicy peanut sauce, rice noodles, marinated shiitake mushrooms, purple cabbage, roasted peanuts, sesame seeds, cilantro

In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from the pan and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Prepare the Chicken

In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sriracha, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1/2 cup coconut milk until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Make the Spicy Peanut Sauce

Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Cook the Noodles

In the same skillet, add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the purple cabbage and cook for another 2 minutes until slightly wilted.

Sauté the Mushrooms

Add the cooked noodles and sliced chicken to the skillet with the mushrooms and cabbage. Pour the spicy peanut sauce over and toss everything together until well combined and heated through.

Combine Everything

Serve the spicy peanut chicken noodles in bowls, topped with chopped roasted peanuts, toasted sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro.
