This recipe calls for using cooked shredded chicken. You can do this one of two ways:
- Buy raw chicken breasts and cook them in a slow cooker for meltingly tender meat. You can cook them on high for 4 hours or on low for 8 hours. Sometimes I add a drizzle of soy sauce over the raw chicken so that it doesn’t get too dry in the slow cooker. They will be very easy to shred after they’re done cooking. You can do this the day ahead, and refrigerate the shredded chicken until ready to use.
- Skip the cooking step by buying rotisserie chicken and shredding it. This is the easiest method and works great if you’re in a pinch.
These spicy peanut noodles could not be easier to make. The Thai-inspired peanut sauce is a throw-everything-together type of affair, and it takes only a quick stirring to combine into a thick peanut butter sauce. Once the chicken is shredded and the spaghetti is boiled to al dente, all you have to do is stir everything together in a pan and voila, dinner is ready. If you’re looking for side dishes to pair with these spicy peanut noodles, I recommend whipping up a tofu stir fry — super easy and tastes ten times better than it sounds.
