Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams rice noodles
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons sriracha
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 medium, sliced red bell pepper
- 1 medium, julienned carrot
- 3 stalks, chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons crushed peanuts

Instructions
Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lime juice, honey, sriracha, and sesame oil to create the sauce. Set it aside.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add a splash of water (instead of extra oil) to prevent sticking.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced red bell pepper and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, keeping the vegetables crisp-tender.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked noodles to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and toss well to combine.
Sprinkle the chopped green onions, fresh cilantro, crushed peanuts, and chili flakes on top. Toss again gently to distribute all the toppings.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional cilantro or lime wedges if desired. Enjoy your low-fat Thai Spicy Noodles!
