Stir Fry with Peanut Sauce

1/4 cup Catalina dressing
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 tbsp soy sauce
1/4 cup red pepper flakes
3 tsp canola oil
1 lb chicken breast, cut in strips
4 cups fresh or frozen vegetables
8 ounces pasta or rice
2 green onions, sliced (optional)







Start the rice or pasta cooking.

Mix dressing, peanut butter, soy sauce and pepper flakes in a bowl, set aside. It seems like a strange recipe for peanut sauce, but it worked and tasted pretty good. Easy to remember too. Plus I had some Catalina dressing left over from taco salad one night, so everything was just perfect.






Heat 2 tsp of oil in a pan. Add chicken, cook on medium heat until chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat and place in large serving bowl.
Cook vegetables in remaining 1 tsp of oil for about 5 minutes, or until crisp tender.









Toss pasta, chicken, vegetables and sauce. Sprinkle with green onion.
