A few years ago our friends took us to the Pizza and Noodle in Springdale. They bought us a Thai Peanut Chicken Pizza. I had never heard of such a thing but it was delish. So, a few weeks ago I made peanut sauce for the first time. We sauteed onion, garlic, yellow squash, zucchini, and matchstick carrots and wrapped it in a tortilla with rice and peanut sauce. It was a great way to eat veggies. Since then we've also used it on said pizza and stir fried veggies over rice. We're not exactly vegetarian but we go with the use sparingly advice. I love the flavor this yummy sauce adds and since it keeps well, it is perfect for every day I don't really want to cook.
Peanut Sauce
5 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
3/4 Cup Sugar
4 cloves minced garlic
7 Tablespoons water
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
In a small saucepan, stir soy sauce, garlic, sugar and water and simmer about 10 minutes then stir in the peanut butter. This saves for several weeks in the fridge.
Thai Peanut Veggie Wraps
1 small yellow onion chopped
2 cups julienne summer squash
2 cups matchstick carrots
2 cloves minced garlic
In a wok stir-fry carrots, squash and onions in 2 Tablespoons oil until crisp-tender. Add garlic and stir fry 2 minutes more. To serve: warm tortillas and fill with rice, veggies and peanut sauce.
