Szechuan peanut sauce

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
5 ounces Chunky peanut butter
2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
1½ tablespoon Water
2 tablespoons Sugar
6 Garlic cloves -- minced
1 tablespoon Cilantro -- chopped
4 teaspoons Hot chili oil

Directions

* Cilantro is usually sold in small bunches. You will need only about ⅓ of an average bunch or 2-3 of the stems with leaves attached. It may also be sold as coriander or Chinese parsley.

Place all ingredients in food processor EXCEPT cilantro. Process only long enough to thoroughly combine. Add finely chopped cilantro after processing is done. If added to the mixture first it will take on an unappealing color although it does not change the taste in any way.

Yield: 1 cup or enough for 14-16 servings. Use about 1 tablespoon of sauce per serving of chicken or fish.
