Spicy Thai Noodles

This was another find on pinterest.  I made this and even made the less spicy version and about burned up my kids chapped lips!  It has great flavor, but was very spicy.  I am planning on  adjusting the red pepper.  The noodles were way less spicy the next day and my kids even said they were better.  The first night I made them they didn't want to stop eating them, but their little mouths were on fire!  So try with my adjustments and see what you think.
Spicy Thai Noodles
  • 1 box linguine or angel hair pasta
  • 1-2 tbsp crushed red pepper (even 1 tbsp was too spicy, going to try 1/2 tbsp)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup sesame oil
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • 6 tbsp soy sauce
  • any additional add ins you like, chicken, peas, sprouts, peanuts, green onions, etc.
Boil Noodles and drain.

Have all your add ins you want ready to go!

Heat the vegetable and sesame oils and crushed red pepper over medium heat in a small pan.  Heat til very warm and then strain the red peppers out and reserve the oil.

Add to the oil the honey and soy sauce.  Whisk together.  Toss mixture with noodles and any add ins you wanted.

Serve and enjoy!
