Cara's Chinese Dinner



I have really been in the mood lately for Chinese food, so tonight I thought I would make my own Chinese restaurant style dish.

Cara’s Chinese
Rice Noodles
Yellow Squash
Zucchini Squash
Thinly sliced carrots (from the bag)
Peanuts
3 Chicken Breast
Peanut Sauce

• Cook noodles as directed on box
• Grill Chicken with a bit of salt and pepper and once done cut into small pieces
• Cut squash and zucchini into thin slices
• Add squash, zucchini, and carrots into a skillet cooking at medium high. Add some soy sauce. Cover with lid for about 3 minuets. Lift cover and stir. Let cook with lid off for about 5 more min.

Peanut Sauce
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
4 cloves of garlic minced

Mix all ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Constantly stirring. Once melted and thickened up it is ready to serve.

In a bowl place noodles, veggie mix, chicken, peanut sauce, and a hand full of peanuts.

This is a great meal when you feel you want some Chinese takeout!
I got the recipe for the Peanut Sauce from www.cooks.com. In their recipe they added lemon juice but I didn’t add that into mine and it tasted fin.

Bon Appetite
