Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces linguini cooked and rinsed under cold water
  • 1 ripe mango peeled and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 cup red cabbage shredded
  • 1 cup carrots shredded
  • 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh mint or Thai basil chopped
  • ¼ cup roasted peanuts or cashews chopped
  • lime wedges optional
  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 garlic clove finely minced
  • 1-2 teaspoons sriracha or chili garlic sauce to taste
  • 2-3 tablespoons water warm

Instructions
 

  • Cook the linguini to al dente, then drain and rinse with cold water to cool and prevent sticking.
  • Whisk together the dressing ingredients until smooth. Add warm water, a little at a time, until the dressing is creamy and pourable.
  • Combine the cooked noodles, mango, cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, green onions, and herbs.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together until well coated.
  • Sprinkle with chopped peanuts or cashews. Add lime wedges on the side, if you like.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Make sure to rinse your noodles well after cooking to cool them and keep them from clumping.
  • This salad is great served cold—and it tastes even better after 30 minutes in the fridge.
  • Like it hotter? Add more sriracha or some crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Toss in some grilled shrimp or tofu to make it more filling.
