ingredients
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon Filippo Berio Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
- 3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 teaspoons Sriracha, plus more for serving
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 pound vermicelli
- 1/2 cup julienned carrots
- 1/2 cup julienned English cucumber
- 1/2 cup julienned red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped salted dry- roasted peanuts
- Lime, sliced, for serving
Method
Step 1
Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Whisk in the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, Sriracha, and sesame oil until blended and smooth. Remove the pan from the heat.
Step 2
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the vermicelli and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water. Rinse the pasta with cold water and drain again.
Step 3
Toss the pasta with the peanut sauce and loosen with some of the cooking water, if necessary. Arrange the pasta with the carrots, cucumber, bell pepper, and peanuts on a serving platter. Toss before serving with more Sriracha and lime slices.
