Feature Presentation: Peanut Chicken Noodle Salad + The Sting (1973)


What we made tonight was based on this recipe,
http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2012/06/cold-rice-noodles-with-peanut-lime-chicken/

...with a few modifications:  We used lemon juice instead of lime juice, a different set of vegetables {arugula, carrots, red cabbage, a tiny bit of white onion}, regular sugar instead of brown sugar, chunky peanut butter instead of creamy and no crushed peanuts at the end, we used fettuccine instead of rice noodles, chicken breasts instead of chicken thighs, grilled on a foreman instead of conventional grill, used white wine vinegar instead of rice vinegar, used dried ginger instead of ginger root, used chili powder instead of cayenne pepper, used crushed red peppers instead of chili peppers, and didn't use a food processor (just stirred really fast by hand ;) ).




Voila!



And for a special treat,
we note that this food goes well
with this classic film from the
con-game genre:


Enjoy!
