Ingredients
- Spiralized medium zucchini for a delightful twist
- A splash of olive oil for a touch of Mediterranean goodness
- Sliced green onions to add a pop of color
- Minced garlic cloves for a flavorful kick
- Soy sauce for a hint of umami
- Brown sugar to balance the flavors
- A pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy surprise
- Chopped peanuts for a crunchy finish
- Thinly sliced red bell pepper for a vibrant addition
Step 1
Prepare by heating a skillet on medium-high heat until it's nice and hot. Cook the zucchini noodles in the skillet for about 3 to 4 minutes. Once done, transfer the noodles to a metal colander and allow them to drain in the sink.
Step 2
In the same skillet, add a drizzle of olive oil and adjust the heat to medium-low. Saute the green onions and garlic in the fragrant oil for 2 to 3 minutes. Introduce soy sauce, brown sugar, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the mix. Let the flavors meld and the sauce thicken for approximately 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
Step 3
Squeeze out any excess moisture from the zoodles in the colander. Combine the zoodles with the savory sauce, ensuring they are nicely coated. Plate the dish and garnish with a sprinkle of chopped peanuts and colorful bell pepper slices. Enjoy your flavorful creation!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Preserve the freshness of your peanuts by storing them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. This will keep them crunchy and flavorful for longer.
- 2. Keep your zoodles fresh and crisp by storing them in airtight containers with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. This will prevent them from becoming soggy.
