Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
Salad:
2 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts (I use equivalent thighs)
1/3 pound snow peas
2 Tbsp oil
8 water chestnuts, thinly sliced (I omit these)
12 oz thin spaghetti, cooked al dente, rinsed and drained
3 scallions, chopped, including green tops
Sauce:
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp plus 1 tsp oriental sesame oil (do not omit)
2 Tbsp peanut or vegetable oil
2 Tbsp dry sherry
1/4 tsp hot red pepper oil or Tabasco
1/2 tsp sugar
Recipe
Slice each chicken breast into 1 1/2x1/8-inch strips.
Snap off top of each snow pea towards the side where the peas are attached to pods. Pull down side of pod to remove string. Cut in half.
Heat oil in 12-inch wok or skillet. Add chicken strips and stir-fry 3 minutes on medium heat. Add snow peas and water chestnuts. Stir-fry 1 minute. Place chicken, snow peas and water chestnuts in a large serving bowl.
Combine scallions, pasta and chicken mixture.
Combine sauce ingredients and pour on salad. Toss.
Serve at once or cover and chill 20 minutes.
