Chicken Peanut Soba Slaw

Made this tonight and found it addictive!  I modified the original recipe a bit, so I figured I'd write it down here.  I added more noodles than the original and tossed in chicken to make it a complete meal instead of a side. Absolutely loved it!  Makes a ton, so this will feed the fam. You can add more slaw ingredients to make it more veggie heavy if you want, but this was great as-is.

Slaw:
8 oz. whole wheat spaghetti
2 c. cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken
1 bag (8 cups) slaw mix

Sauce:
1/2 c. peanut butter
3 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
3 Tbsp sesame oil
3 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 cloves minced garlic

Garnish:
lime wedges
cilantro
chopped peanuts
green onion
sriracha

1. Cook and drain noodles.
2. Mix in large bowl with chicken and slaw mix.
3. Combine sauce ingredients until smooth. Add a little water if too thick. (Should be drizzle-able.)
4. Drizzle sauce over slaw/noodle mixture in large bowl.  Toss with tongs until coated evenly.
5. Sprinkle with cilantro and/or green onion and peanuts, and serve with lime wedges and fresh cilantro. Sriracha if you want a little spice.
