This Chinese Noodles with Peanut Sauce recipe is so comforting and so delicious.
It’s wonderful served warm when it’s cold outside, and it’s great served room temp when it’s hot outdoors!
The sauce is literally exploding with flavor and the noodles just soak up that incredible yumminess.
The richness of the creamy peanut butter along with a touch of sweet from the honey, matched against a little bit of heat provided by the chili oil is just the best.
These noodles are wonderful as an appetizer, or a great side dish, or, a meal by themselves. We just love a good peanut sauce and this one is about as good as they come!
Chinese noodles can be found in the Asian section of most major supermarkets or at Asian food markets.
In a pinch, you could easily substitute spaghetti or really any other kind of noodle. The real star of this dish is the incredible peanut sauce.
And now, go and make this super delicious Chinese Noodle with Peanut Sauce recipe!
