Cold Sesame Noodles With Chicken

• Salt
• 1 pound whole-wheat linguine or spaghetti
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 6 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 2 cups shredded cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 2 1/2 cups frozen broccoli florets, thawed
• 2 carrots, shredded
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
• 6 scallions, white and light green parts, chopped

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add pasta and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes.
2. In a blender, combine garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, peanut butter and sugar; blend until smooth.
3. Drain pasta, rinse under cold running water and drain again. Toss with sauce in a large bowl, adding more water, 1 tsp. at a time, as necessary to moisten. Add chicken, broccoli, carrots and bell pepper and toss again. Sprinkle with scallions and serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
