Chef's Note

For extra flavor with minimal effort, add a tablespoon of soy sauce and a teaspoon of honey to the bottled kung pao sauce. If you prefer less spice, look for a mild kung pao sauce or substitute with a general stir-fry sauce.

Ingredients
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 pound dried spaghetti noodles

  • 1 cup bottled kung pao sauce

  • 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables (broccoli, carrots, snap peas)

  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1/2 cup unsalted peanuts, chopped

  • 4 green onions, sliced

Instructions
  • 1

    Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add 1 pound of dried spaghetti noodles and cook according to package directions (about 8-10 minutes). Drain and set aside.

  • 2

    While noodles cook, heat 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

  • 3

    Add 2 pounds of chicken pieces to the hot oil and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally until chicken is no longer pink and begins to brown.

  • 4

    Add 4 cups of frozen mixed vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry with the chicken for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are heated through.

  • 5

    Pour 1 cup of bottled kung pao sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir to coat everything evenly.

  • 6

    Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined and heated through, about 2 minutes.

  • 7

    Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of chopped peanuts and sliced green onions before serving.
