Cool Spicy Noodle Salad
Ingredients
Food Safety
Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps
Prepare the dressing by whisking the oils, sugar and soy sauce together. Add the garlic, ginger, chili flakes and hot garlic sauce. If you are not a fan of fiery fare, add either the flakes or sauce, not both. Squeeze 3 tablespoons (45 mL) juice from the lime and whisk in. Taste and add salt if needed. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Cook the noodles following package directions. Chop the peppers and prepare the carrots and add to the pasta for the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain noodles and peppers and place in a large bowl. Add the green onions and immediately whisk the dressing and pour in. Toss until evenly coated. Stir in the chicken. Refrigerate and stir a couple of times until chilled. Serve right away or refrigerate overnight. Toss with the coriander just before serving.
