Speedy Chicken Stir-Fry


I tried this recipe about a year ago. Matt and I both really liked it. If you're in the mood for something different for dinner with an Asian twist, this is the recipe for you. The soy sauce with the dressing almost made a yakitori type sauce. It was so good. I did not use the peanuts, and if I do it again I will do more broccoli then it called for.

Speedy Chicken Stir-Fry

8 oz. angel hair pasta, uncooked
2 cups small broccoli florets (small broccoli works better)
1 lb. chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1/2 cup KRAFT Asian Toasted Sesame Dressing
2 Tbsp each: ground ginger, garlic powder, crushed red pepper
1/4 tsp Soy Sauce
1/3 cup chopped PLANTERS Dry Roasted Peanuts

COOK pasta as directed on package, adding broccoli to the boiling water for the last 3 min. of the pasta cooking time.

MEANWHILE, spray large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 6 to 8 min. or until cooked through, stirring occasionally. Stir in dressing, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and crushed red pepper; cook 1 min., stirring occasionally.

DRAIN pasta mixture; place in large bowl. Add chicken mixture; mix lightly. Spoon evenly into serving bowls; sprinkle with the peanuts (if desired)
