🛒 Ingredients

  • 3 medium English cucumbers, spiralized (or 3 cups pre-spiralized)
  • 2 large eggs, soft-boiled (or poached)
  • 1/2 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1/4 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp unsalted roasted peanuts, crushed
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 green onion, sliced on bias
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (white)
  • 3 tbsp powdered peanut butter (PB2)
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp tamari or coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp almond milk (unsweetened)
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp sriracha (or to taste)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep the cucumber noodles: Trim cucumber ends. Using a spiralizer on the thick noodle blade, create long strands. Place in a colander and lightly salt; let sit 5 minutes to release excess moisture. Pat dry with paper towels to prevent a soggy bowl.
2. Make the peanut sesame dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together powdered peanut butter, rice vinegar, tamari, sesame oil, almond milk, tahini, minced garlic, and sriracha. Stir until smooth. Adjust heat and tanginess to taste. The dressing should be pourable but clinging to noodles.
3. Soft-boil or poach the eggs: Bring a small pot of water to a gentle boil. For soft-boiled: add eggs and cook 6–7 minutes. For poached: create a gentle whirlpool, slide eggs in, and cook 3–4 minutes. Transfer to ice water briefly, then pat dry.

4. Assemble the first bowl: Divide spiralized cucumber between two bowls. Top each with 1/4 cup shredded chicken, scattered bell pepper slices, and crushed peanuts.
5. Dress and toss: Pour half the peanut sesame dressing over each bowl. Using two forks or chopsticks, gently toss to coat the cucumber noodles evenly without breaking them. Taste and add extra sriracha or tamari if desired.
6. Crown with egg and garnish: Place one soft-boiled egg (halved or whole) in the center of each bowl. Scatter fresh cilantro, green onion slices, and sesame seeds on top. Serve immediately while eggs are still warm and cucumber is crisp.
