As my mind's on Breaking Dawn, I can't help but think that if vampires could eat, they would really enjoy this straight out of the fridge after a little horizontal immortal mambo. Just sayin'. What I wish & get are two different things, no spoilers here. Anyway, ahem, here's the recipe.....
Sesame Chicken & Noodles (adapted from Better Homes & Gardens)
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/3 cup sliced scallions
2 tblsp honey
1 tblsp soy sauce
1 tsp ground ginger
2 tblsp Asian garlic chili sauce
3/4 lb fresh chicken tenderloins
8 oz pkg whole wheat whole grain thin spaghetti
2 tblsp sesame oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 8oz pkg special blend mushrooms
In medium bowl stir together vinegar, scallions, honey, soy sauce, ginger & garlic-chili sauce. If you have pre-packaged chicken toss it into sauce & set aside to allow flavors to meld. If using fresh chicken, saute in pan with a little oil for a few minutes. Add red pepper & mushroom & saute for another few minutes. Add to sauce & set aside.
Meanwhile, prepare your noodles. When they're done, rinse with cold water if you are eating the dish cold. Toss with the sesame oil. Place on plate & then spoon chicken mixture on top.
My thoughts:
If you don't have garlic chili sauce, just add some garlic powder to the sauce. Also, original recipe called for 12 oz pkg of refrigerated grilled chicken breast strips but I don't like buying those pre-packaged goods because of the sodium.

GOod grief, I had a long comment and then it disappeared... well, long comment made short, do you have any advice for cooking chicken thighs??
I have been running so crazy this week getting ready for homecoming that I haven't been able to check blogs, but finding this recipe waiting for me was worth it! Yum!
Yummers! But dang if I didn't come by before I ate and now I am so very hungry. And I think you just gave away some of E and B's story I have yet to get to...
I made almost this same exact recipe last week. CrAzY! I got my recipe from an old Taste of Home magazine. It was Yum-O! We ate ours cold!
horizontal immortal mambo....oh Stephanie, you crack me up!
That looks good! Some foods are definitely better cold than hot--I agree one hudred percent!
That sounds yummmmy. My kids would prolly dig it too.
I'm still yes, still, trying to get through Eclipse. Slow going for me.
Yummy, yummy! I made stir fry for the first time in AGES and it was awesome. I was thinking that I needed to add some more Asian dishes to my recipe index and this defintely fits the bill. Thanks!
Sounds GOOD to ME!!!!! YUM! Have a great Thursday!

I would totally love a printable recipe option. That would be so cool.
I love how you connect pasta to the Twilight series!
Looks good! I like the printable recipe idea. I wish I could figure that out:) But I will come and print recipes from your blog no matter what you decide to do!
Oh my, I can't wait to try it. This sounds easy & delicious. Love the picture too, it makes my mouth water.
(I added you to my blog roll, I think I'm in love with your blog.)
Looks fantastic! Can't wait to whip this recipe up soon! Do you know how to add a printable option for your recipes? I'd love to know how. I think it's a great option.
Nice recipe. It's good hot but I love cold Asian noodle salads too. I am glad the printable option worked for you!
I'm starving. So I'm going to imagine eating this as a snack while I TRY to wait to meet the girls for girl's night. Pretty yummy. :o)
Sounds yummy, now I just need to figure out how to make it gluten free.
How does one eat noodles with chopsticks...I can barely handle rice at this point.
I love sesame!!!
Good stuff. Where have you been. You've been missing in action. Whenever I get pots I'm going to try some of your recipes.
Mmmm, looks delish! Have to try it now. Thanks for sharing.
OMG, another Twilight fan. I'm totally missing out on something HUGE for not reading. Kick me.
That looks so good. I love Asian so this is right up my alley.
