Ingredients

Chicken
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into thin slices
8-ounce jar Thai peanut satay sauce (from Trader Joe’s)
1 clove grated garlic
Cucumber Salad
2 cups thinly sliced cucumber (1 large English cucumber)
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion (about 1/4 an onion)
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 tablespoon vinegar
salt and sugar to taste
Noodles and Toppers
4 ounces vermicelli noodles (or rice!)
a few tablespoons of crushed peanuts
a few sprigs of herbs – mint, cilantro, or basil

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: Marinate the chicken with half the jar of sauce and the garlic for about 30 minutes to an hour. Cucumber Salad: Meanwhile, toss the cucumbers, onions, oil, vinegar, salt and sugar together.

Cook the Chicken: Heat a small amount of oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat; add chicken, let it sit undisturbed for a few minutes to caramelize, then flip and repeat until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. To caramelize it further, you can add a pinch of sugar towards the end.

Make a Bowl: Serve the chicken over rice noodles, with some of the cucumber salad, fresh herbs, and peanuts.

Sauce: Using your remaining sauce, add a bit of water, soy sauce, or chili oil to the jar to thin it out into more of a dressing. Drizzle over the bowls and dive into that.
