Ingredients
- 12 ounces soba
- 1 cup frozen shelled edamame
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (not seasoned)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons grated peeled ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Asian chili sauce (such as Sriracha or sambal oelek)
- Kosher salt
- 1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 cup diced cucumber
- 1/2 cup chopped scallions
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the soba and edamame and cook as the noodle label directs. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the soba and edamame and run under cold water until cool.
- Whisk the peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil and chili sauce in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water and whisk until smooth. Add the soba and edamame, season with salt and toss to combine (add more cooking water to loosen, if needed). Divide among shallow bowls and top with the chicken, cucumber and scallions.

Reviews
I now keep buckwheat soba noodles and beans stocked for this recipe since it is so easy, plus I can use them for other things. I get the noodles at World Market but recently discovered I can get them cheaper at Ingles.
I do make some changes:
-I omit chicken usually unless I happen to have left over grilled chicken on hand.
-I use baby lima beans instead of edamae since they’re cheaper and not a huge change.
-I do not run the noodles and beans under cold water because I prefer warm food.
-Do not use green onions unless I already have them on hand. Have used scallions and cilantro instead before.
-Top with a decent amount of Srircha because that stuff is nom.
-Stir in more cucumbers because I can
I would say as long as you have an inclination toward asian or indian food made with a peanut sauce, you’re gonna like this. If you’re more the picky sort that sticks to swwet and sour and stir fry, this might not be for you.
