1/8 teaspoon hot sauce

Preparation / Directions:


Combine first 8 ingredients (sugar through garlic) in a large bowl; stir well. Add chicken; toss gently to coat. Cover and chill 1 hour. Remove chicken from marinade, reserving marinade. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; stir-fry 5 minutes. Add reserved marinade, green onions, and snow peas. Stir-fry 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Combine fusilli, sesame oil, and 1 tsp soy sauce in a large bowl. Toss gently to coat. Add chicken mixture and peanuts, tossing gently. Note: I made this with frozen tofu. Only marinated it for about 20 minutes.
