Yield: 4 Servings

5 15 20

Ingredients

1/2 cup chicken broth
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon brown sugar
6 ounces uncooked angel hair pasta
18 fresh asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 medium sweet red pepper, julienned
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup sliced green onions

Excellent recipe! My husband & I add a whole sweet red pepper (instead of a half) and pine nuts to this recipe. We keep a jar of chopped jalapeno peppers "on hand" and use 2 heaping TB in this recipe.

Made this for dinner tonight (for a picky eater for a hubby) and it was pretty tasty but a tad too spicy. I would cut back a bit on the jalapeno and add a little olive oil when tossing it all together. Next time we thought it would be good too with chicken pieces in there. Will make it again.

My husband and I love this dish! It is so tasty. We add scallops, shrimp or salmon pieces. A lot of ingredients but definitely well worth it.
