*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR LINGUINE *** Can someone help me out with a good recipe for a cold chicken/pasta dish. I once tryed a szechuan dinner that had chopped peanuts in it very tasty, but it had to be served in a ceramic containment vessel. Thanks for your help. Dave Wargo ucbvax!sdcsvax!sdcsla:wargo p.s. I could always try to squeeze some lemon on the chicken and see if it squirms, but that`s another recipe. p.p.s. I reciently tryed my first escargo. VERY tasty and look I am still around to talk about it well I have got to go, why is it getting so dark in here? Mary had a little lamb, AWK, AWK, NAK...

Courtesy of the Frugal Gourmet: Cold Glass Noodle and Chicken Salad in Peanut Sauce 1 8-ounce package cellophane noodles 2 chicken bouillon cubes 2 tablespoons peanut butter 4 tablespoon hot water 5 tablespoons light soy sauce red pepper oil or tabasco or red chili paste with garlic to taste or cayenne 1 cucumeber 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar 1/4 teaspoon sugar 2 teaspoons sesame oil 1 cup cooked chicken, cut into julienne strips 1/4 cup dry rasted peanuts, chopped Soak the cellophane noodles in water to cover for 1 hour, and then add the chicken bouillon cubes. Simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender bt not mushy. Drain nearly all the broth, and cool the noodles in the refrigerator. Mix the peanut butter with the hot water. Stir with a fork until it has the consistency of heavy cream (you may need a bit more water). Add the 3 tablespoons soy sauce and the red pepper sauce or tabasco or cayenne Drain the noodles and toss with this dressing. Cut the cucumber into small julienne pieces, and marinate in a sauce of 2 tablespoons soy sauce, the rice wine vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil. Arrange the cucumeber sticks on top of the noodles. Garnish with the cooked chicken and some chopped peanuts. ****************** i can't see why this would require any special dishes, as long as one didn't try to use something unglazed. meg mcroberts ihuxi!megann
