LINGUINE SALAD WITH PEANUT SAUCE
8 oz. dry linguine, uncooked
1/2 to 1 cup chopped scallion
1 cucumber, diced
FOR THE DRESSING:
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup cider vinegar (or rice vinegar)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup warm water
1/3 cup sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. 5-spice powder
hot sauce (to taste)
FOR SERVING:
dark green lettuce leaves
toasted sesame seeds and tomato wedges (for garnish)
Cook linguine as directed on box, but undercook slightly. Drain. Rinse with cool water.
In a large bowl, combine linguini, scallions, and cucumber.
In a separate bowl, whisk together peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, water, oil, garlic, 5-spice powder, and hot sauce.
TO SERVE:
Arrange lettuce on platter. Spoon linguine mixture into the middle. Drizzle dressing over top. Garnish with sesame seeds and tomato wedges.
VARIATIONS:
- For a heartier dish, add cubed cooked chicken or turkey.
- Serve hot, replacing the cucumbers with cooked zucchini.
TIP: "I like to triple the peanut sauce and keep it in the refrigerator to use as a salad dressing or dipping sauce for grilled chicken."
