Thai Peanut Chicken with Ramen
This dish takes those little Ramen noodles to a new level. This dish is fantastic. You have the freshness of the coconut, cilantro and lime flavors, with the smooth creaminess of peanut butter… all backed up with a hint of Sriracha on the stir-fried chicken. I’d make this again and again.
