Peanut butter stir fry has a delicious peanut butter sauce to give this dish an extra boost of peanut flavor.
Stir fry is one of the easiest dishes to throw together on busy week nights. At our house we almost always use chicken in our stir fry but pork, beef, or shrimp are also delicious options! In the freezer section of the grocery store there are bags of stir fry vegetables that are super easy to throw in if you don’t have time to cut up fresh vegetables.
The best part of this recipe is the peanut butter sauce that gets tossed with the chicken, broccoli, and pasta. The sauce has only 6 ingredients and is really easy to throw together! The soy sauce, chicken broth, ginger, and garlic give the sauce the traditional stir fry flavors. Then the peanut butter and honey add a sweet, peanut kick that makes the sauce amazing!
This dish overall does not taste like peanut butter. My sister hates peanut butter with a passion and LOVES this stir fry!
