Life is beautiful, but also very chaotic with twin newborn twins at home. I am loving on them and enjoying every minute, but sometimes a girl needs to eat! This Thai Peanut Chicken Noodle Skillet is a perfect meal seeing it only takes 20 minutes and doesn’t make a bunch of dishes. The sink is full of bottles and pump parts, so there is no room or time for some intricate meal!

Thai Peanut Chicken Noodle Skillet is a quick and healthy 20 minute meal made with spicy noodles and vegetables. 

This easy skillet meal starts by sauteing a few chicken breasts in a pan and then adding in some fresh vegetables. A homemade Thai Peanut Sauce is added to the pan along with some chicken broth and rice noodles that cook up in a matter of minutes.

Top the Thai Peanut Chicken Noodle Skillet with some chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro and you have a flavorful and healthy dinner ready in just 20 minutes!

The homemade Thai Peanut Sauce adds a great depth of flavor to this dish and you can customize it to your liking. Add or subtract some of the red pepper flakes to adjust the spiciness to you and your family’s liking. If time is of the essence though, you can always use a sore bought sauce to the recipe. Hit it with a little lime juice for some freshness that the store-bought sauce is lacking. Thai Peanut Chicken Noodle Skillet
