Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup low sodium soy sauce

  • ⅓ cup seasoned rice wine vinegar

  • ¼ cup lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons chile paste with garlic

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root

  • 1 teaspoon dried mint

  • 8 ounces rice noodles

  • 1 pound lean ground pork

  • 1 cup thinly sliced green onions

  • 1 cup chopped cilantro

  • 1 cup thinly sliced snow peas

  • 1 large red onion, quartered and thinly sliced

  • ¼ cup roasted peanuts

Directions

  1. Combine soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, lime juice, chile paste with garlic, sesame oil, ginger root, and mint in a jar with a tight-fitting lid; cover and shake until sauce is well blended.

  2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add noodles and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, cool, and place in a serving bowl. Cut noodles using kitchen shears.

  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir pork in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain, discard grease, and cool on paper towels. Add pork to noodles.

  4. Mix green onions, cilantro, snow peas, and red onion with pork and noodles.

  5. Place peanuts in a heavy resealable bag; seal and lightly crush using the bottom of a jar or large glass. Add peanuts to noodle mixture. Add sauce and toss well.
