Peanut butter gives this tasty blend of red peppers, snow peas and shrimp its Thai flavor, while ginger and red pepper flakes spice it up. The colorful main dish, served over pasta, was sent in by Jeanne Fisher of Simi Valley, California.

I made this a few years ago and completely forgot about it.. just made it again tonight and it was as good as I remembered. I cut the recipe in half to serve 2, but i still made the full amount of sauce, and it was only slightly too much sauce, so if I made it for 4 people, i would probably double the sauce.
