Ingredients

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
½ red bell pepper, chopped
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped mushrooms
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
1 large skinless, boneless chicken breast, sliced
½ (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
½ cup peanut butter
½ cup chopped peanuts
¾ cup 1-inch pieces fresh green beans
½ (8 ounce) package egg noodles

Steps:

Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add red bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Cook and stir chicken in the same saucepan until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Return red bell pepper mixture to the saucepan. Add chicken broth, peanut butter, and peanuts. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is smooth, about 5 minutes.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans and egg noodles; cook until egg noodles are tender, about 6 minutes. Drain. Stir green beans and egg noodles into the chicken and sauce mixture.
