Udon Peanut Butter Noodles

1 (9 ounce) package dried udon noodles

½ cup chicken broth

1 ½ tablespoons minced fresh ginger root

3 tablespoons soy sauce

3 tablespoons peanut butter

1 ½ tablespoons honey

2 teaspoons chili oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 whole rotisserie chicken, skinned and boned, meat pulled into large chunks

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

¼ cup green onions, chopped

¼ cup chopped peanuts

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Bring a large pot with lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Drop the udon in a few noodles at a time and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain; return to the pot.

While the udon noodles are cooking, whisk the chicken broth, ginger, soy sauce, peanut butter, honey, chile oil, and garlic in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, whisking until the peanut butter has melted. Pour the sauce over the noodles. Add the chicken and red bell pepper; toss until the noodles are evenly coated in the sauce. Sprinkle with green onions, chopped peanuts, and cilantro to serve.
