If you were to ask us, one weekly stir-fry night is mandatory. So is a pasta night. So if you’re looking to kill two birds with one stone, so to speak, our chefs have got just the dish for you. You’ll make your own chicken satay with a spicy coconut-based peanut sauce. Mix that up with carrots, scallion, and ramen noodles and you’re ready for stir-fry night.

Cooking Steps
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Peel and mince garlic. Quarter lime. Trim and peel carrot. Using a peeler, shave carrot lengthwise into ribbons, rotating as you go, until you get to the core. Discard core. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Roughly chop peanuts.
• Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
• While chicken cooks, in a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, ponzu, chili sauce, soy sauce, half the peanut butter, and juice from half the lime (whole lime for 4 servings) until smooth. TIP: Taste sauce and add more peanut butter if you like a nuttier flavor.
• Stir carrot ribbons and scallion whites into pan with chicken mixture; cook until slightly softened, 1-2 minutes. Season with a big pinch of salt and pepper. • Once water is boiling, add ¾ of the noodles (save the rest for another use) to pot; cook until tender, 1-2 minutes. • Drain noodles and thoroughly rinse under cold water, at least 30 seconds. (This stops the cooking and helps prevent sticky noodles.)
• Stir sauce into pan with stir-fry; bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook until thickened, 2-4 minutes. • Add drained noodles and toss until everything is thoroughly coated in sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove pan from heat.
• Divide noodle stir-fry between bowls. Garnish with scallion greens and peanuts. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the creamy peanut sauce, though some found it too peanut buttery; adding extra chili sauce or sriracha boosted the spice 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: Generally easy to make, though some had trouble with the carrot ribbons and sticky noodles.
- Suggestions: Consider adding more veggies like broccoli or bell peppers; be careful not to overcook the noodles.
- Portions: Some felt there were too many noodles compared to protein and vegetables.
- Sauce: For a thinner sauce, use less coconut milk; adjust peanut butter to taste for desired nuttiness.
Reviews from our home cooks
This was so good! Loved the already cut up chicken pieces. Also really enjoyed learning how to make carrot ribbons. We added a little extra sriracha to spice it up. Yum!
Delicious! We used all the noodles instead of 3/4 and didn't regret it one bit! The sauce is delicious and flavorful. The carrot ribbons brought it all together.
Creamy satay sauce with good flavor. Our family added additional sriracha. Our non-noodle eater had it with rice. Having the noodles separate made it easy to pull a portion of the chicken sauce aside.
I put a good bit of crushed red pepper in the sauce when added back to the pan to thicken and it took it to the next level. The peanut butter takes it just a bit out of the realm of Pad Thai and more satay but hot DAMN it good. So glad I got this delivered. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!
This was FANTASTIC. I was excited to try it, and it exceeded my expectations. My only tweak would be with the carrots: I think using a peeler makes them too thin, and the cook time is a little too long. I'm absolutely going to try and recreate it though!
I would replace the ponzu sauce for ginger, since you already have a lime for citrus and the ponzu flavor was pretty hidden, but I used a lot of peanut butter. Still I added fresh ginger to the leftovers and that made it great. I also love that it made great leftovers. I did add more carrots and ate with steamed broccoli.
AWESOME peanut sauce flavor to the noodles. Was unsure when I selected this meal but it is a new found favorite!
Delicious and easy! Would recommend more veggies like zucchini ribbons and more carrots. But would definitely make again!
I really liked this meal. Easy to cook and very nice taste. However, I would ask the chef to add some broccoli in addition to the carrot strips to add some bulk to the meal!
More vegetables besides just carrots would have been good, and made it prettier, too - maybe sugar snap peas and or red pepper? Also, the chicken didn't taste much like satay. It was a good meal, but disappointing.
