  • 1 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoons smooth peanut butter

Directions

Prepare rice noodles according to package directions. Rinse noodles in cold water, drain, and toss in with 1 tbsp oil. Set aside.

Add all of the sauce ingredients to a mixing bowl. Whisk together and set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet. Once hot, add chicken and let cook for 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a plate while you cook the vegetables.

Heat one tablespoon oil over in the same skillet. Add bell peppers and sauté 1 minute. Add carrots and garlic and sauté 1 additional minute. Pour beaten egg over vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, just until scrambled.

Add sauce and noodles. Toss until evenly combined and continue to stir and cook for 1-2 minutes, taking care to not let noodles overcook. Stir in chicken, green onions and peanuts, and heat through.
