  • Author: Sandra
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 large bowls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (olive oil is OK)
  • 2 large bell peppers, thinly sliced (I used red and green)
  • 1 large white onion, sliced
  • 3/4 cup snow peas
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 large chicken breasts, cooked and shredded (about 3 cups)
  • 3 large zucchini, spiralized*
  • optional toppings: sesame seeds, green onion, cilantro

ASIAN DRESSING

 

  • 2/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (olive oil is OK)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3/4 teaspoon fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Siracha
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. First of all,Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the peppers, onions, snow peas and carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes until the veggies are slightly tender, but still have a crunch.
  2. While the veggies are cooking, start the sauce. After this,Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, Siracha and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Once the veggies are done, toss in the chicken and zuchinni noodles. Pour the sauce over top, stir together and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Serve in a large bowl or serving dish topped with sesame seeds, cilantro and green onion. Now Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the refrigerator. To me it tastes best the next day once the zoodles absorb all the flavor.

Notes

Regular pasta can be substituted.
