Ingredients
  

  • 2 teaspoons grated lime peel
  • ½ cup lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 teaspoons fresh minced ginger root
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 8 ounces whole wheat linguine uncooked
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 small julienned red pepper
  • 2 chopped green onions for garnish

Equipment

  • Large pot for boiling pasta
  • Colander for draining
  • Large mixing bowl for the sauce
  • Whisk for mixing
  • Large skillet or wok for sautéing
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water. Once it reaches a rolling boil, add the whole wheat linguine and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. This usually takes about 8-10 minutes.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the grated lime peel, lime juice, low-sodium soy sauce, water, sesame oil, creamy peanut butter, fresh minced ginger, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  3. In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the fresh broccoli florets, shredded carrots, and julienned red pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
  4. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it in a colander and return it to the pot. Pour the prepared peanut ginger sauce over the noodles and toss until the pasta is thoroughly coated. Add the sautéed vegetables and mix gently to combine.
  5. Serve the Peanut Ginger Noodles hot, garnished with chopped green onions. Enjoy your vibrant, flavorful dish!

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, substitute whole wheat linguine with gluten-free pasta.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a dash of sriracha or red pepper flakes to the sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
