This week I made a cilantro peanut sauce, and then realized I wasn’t going to be home much, so I stuck it in the freezer to use at a later time. I love this stuff so much that I would probably bathe in it if that were socially acceptable. Instead, I usually opt to marinate and saute chicken, shrimp, or tofu…vegetables and other proteins would probably work well too. You can adjust or omit any of the ingredients to suit your tastes.
