Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 2 ounces pasta (uncooked)
  • 1 TBSP peanut butter
  • 2 tsp tamari sauce (or soy sauce)
  • 2 tsp lime juice (or rice wine vinegar)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 TBSP water
  • 2 green onions (chopped)
  • 1 cup shelled edamame
  • optional garnishes: chopped peanuts (extra green onion)

Instruction

  • Add uncooked pasta to a large microwave safe glass bowl. Cover with water. Check pasta cooking directions and add two minutes to the recommended cooking time. Microwave on high for recommended cooking time plus two minutes. (My thin spaghetti was recommended to cook for 6-8 minutes, so I cooked it for 8 minutes and it was perfect).
  • Meanwhile, stir together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Set aside. Chop green onions.
  • When pasta is cooked, let sit for 5 minutes. Reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta cooking water and stir into peanut butter mixture. Drain pasta and stir in peanut sauce, green onions, and edamame. Garnish with chopped peanuts and green onions, if desired. Serve hot, cold, or at room temperature.
