Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound zucchini, spiralized
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for vegan)
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha, or more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons water, or more as needed
  • 1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts, for garnish
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your zucchini noodles using a spiralizer. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sriracha, ginger, and garlic until smooth.
  3. Gradually whisk in the water until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. Add more water, a tablespoon at a time, if needed.
  4. Add the spiralized zucchini noodles to the bowl with the peanut sauce.
  5. Toss gently until the noodles are evenly coated.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped peanuts, sliced green onions, and fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add more sriracha to the sauce.
  • If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create wide ribbons, or julienne the zucchini with a knife.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like shredded carrots, bell peppers, or edamame for extra color and nutrients.
