Cooking Steps
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.

Roughly chop peanuts. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper. Zest and quarter lime (for 4 servings, zest one lime and quarter both). Roughly chop cilantro.
- Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.
- In a medium bowl, combine chicken and sesame ginger crunch; season with pepper. Toss to coat. Set aside until ready to use in Step 5.
-
Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes. Drain; set aside until ready to use in Step 6.

While noodles cook, briefly heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.

Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.
