Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes

Chicken Noodles:

• 1 – 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 carrot, grated or julienned
• 2-3 cups shredded red cabbage 
• 1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
• 200g flat rice noodles or Soba noodles
• 500g chicken breast 
• 2 spring onion, green tips only, thinly sliced
• 1 lime, juiced
• Handful of fresh coriander or mint, roughly chopped
• Fresh chilli, finely chopped (optional)

Sauce:

• 1.5 Tablespoons ‘Butter Me Up’ spice mix
• 1/3 cup peanut butter 
• 1/3 cup water
• 1 small lemon, juiced
• 3 Tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos for a soy free, gluten free option 
• 1 Tablespoon fish sauce
• ½ Tablespoon brown sugar 
• 1 Tablespoon garlic infused olive oil

1. Add all sauce ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
2. Heat oil in a wok over medium heat. Add all of the vegetables except for the spring onion to the wok and fry, tossing them frequently to prevent burning. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked to a desired texture. Set vegetables aside in a seperate bowl. 
3. Add the chicken to the wok, along with more oil if needed. Toss the chicken regularly to prevent from burning. While chicken is cooking, cook the rice noodles according to packet instructions. Once cooked, drain using a strainer.
4.  Once the chicken is almost cooked, add vegetables and noodles into the wok and toss them until combined. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have re-heated. Pour over the sauce and add in the spring onion, stir gently to combine. 
5. Squeeze over some fresh lime juice then serve with a sprinkle of fresh coriander or mint and a dash of chopped chilli if desired. Enjoy!
