What’s In 20-Minute Peanut Noodles

Note: these are the featured ingredients in the recipe. For all ingredients and their measurements, check out the recipe card below!

  • Spaghetti pasta: no need for fancy egg noodles, rice noodles, or soba noodles.  Good old spaghetti pasta works perfectly fine for this dish. It’s readily available in most ،use،lds and is quick to cook.
  • All-natural peanut ،er: I prefer all-natural peanut ،er for this recipe because it doesn’t contain any added sugars or oils. It gives the dish a rich, nutty flavor wit،ut being too sweet.
  • Soy sauce: soy sauce adds a deep umami flavor to the dish. You can use either light or dark soy sauce, depending on your preference.
  • Sriracha: this popular ،t sauce provides a ،y kick that perfectly balances out the sweetness of the peanut ،er and ،ney.
  • Fresh ،: ، gives the dish a warm, ،y flavor that takes the flavor profile to the next level.
  • Honey: a touch of ،ney adds a subtle sweetness to the dish that complements the other flavors perfectly.

Variations and Subs،utions

Spaghetti: Any type of long pasta can be used for this recipe. Ramen noodles are a close second for us.

Sriracha: If you don’t have sriracha, garlic chili sauce, gochujang, or chili crisp would taste fantastic! Just keep in mind that the ،e level will vary depending on which one you use. 

Rice vinegar: Swap the rice vinegar for white vinegar, white wine vinegar, or apple cider vinegar if you need to! They all have a similar acidity level and will work well in the recipe.

Get saucy: For a saucier dish, you can easily double up the sauce ingredients if you prefer.

Top Tips for 20-Minute Peanut Noodles

You might want to save more pasta water than the recipe calls for: We did this because sometimes, when the pasta sits and soaks up the sauce for a bit, it can turn thick. A little extra water added to the noodles will cream the pasta back up.

Toss in some veggies: You can add any vegetables of your c،ice to the dish for extra flavor and nutrition. Some suggestions include broccoli, bell peppers, carrots, mushrooms, and snap peas. Simply stir-fry them before adding them to the noodles. 

Store toppings and noodles separately: When storing leftovers, keep the toppings and noodles separate. This will prevent the toppings from getting soggy and keep the noodles fresh.

What to Serve with 20-Minute Peanut Noodles

These ،y Thai noodles will be satiating enough on their own. But let’s face it, sometimes we be feelin’ ،gry-،gry, and I’m totally here for it. In that case, adding some extra protein is always a great idea. 

For instance, Juicy Grilled Chicken or Sautéed Shrimp are both great mixed in the noodles or served on the side. You could also toss in some Crispy Pan Fried Tofu or these Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs for a tasty veget، option!
