My family loved this. I did not have any peanut oil so I used jalapeno flavored olive oil which gave great flavor.

My husband and I REALLY liked this recipe! It was easy to put together and had a nice flavor -- the sweet chili sauce has just the right amount of kick to it. My only complaint about the recipe as a whole is it required ingredients I didn't have around the house (rice noodles, sesame oil, peanut oil, sweet chili sauce). I hesitate to buy a $6 bottle of peanut oil for 1 Tbs. in a recipe. HOWEVER, for us the purchase was worth it because we will DEFINITELY be making this over and over again! Yum-o!
