Thai-Inspired Chicken Spaghetti

I had a dish like this at a restaurant in Canada on my honeymoon and thought it was delicious, so I tried to recreate it once I got back home. This is the result.

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package thin spaghetti, broken in half
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ pounds chicken tenders, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 stalks celery, sliced
  • 2 red bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2/3 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • ¾ cup unsalted peanuts
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 2
While the spaghetti is cooking, heat oil in a large nonstick pan or wok over medium heat. Add chicken; cook and stir until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Add celery, bell peppers, onion, and carrots; cook and stir until vegetables are slightly tender, about 5 minutes.

Step 3
Meanwhile, bring chicken broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, garlic powder, and sesame oil to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce the heat and simmer until sauce reaches desired consistency, 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 4
Stir peanuts, garlic, and red pepper flakes into chicken-vegetable mixture; cook for 2 more minutes. Pour in sauce, then add spaghetti and toss to coat.
