Happy 2013! I’m excited to start the New Year off with this quick, easy, and delicious dinner option (also great for lunch) that the whole family will love.
I adapted The Pioneer Woman’s basic sesame noodle recipe and added chicken and edamame to kick up the protein. I also think the addition of fresh cilantro and Sriracha to finish takes this over the top. Grab your chopsticks and dig in.
