This comes from the infamous wirrek cookbook. We made it last night and it was delicious. Many raves from DH.

2 carrots, peeled entirely with a veggie peeler
1 Tb veggie oil
2 tsp grated peeled fresh ginger
3 garlic cloves, minced
1c chicken broth
1/2c peanut butter
1/4c low-sodium soy sauce
3 Tb rice or white wine vinegar
1 tsp chili garlic sauce
1/4 tsp salt
2c red bell pepper strips
1lb snow peas, trimmed
8c hot cooked linguine
1/2c chopped fresh cilantro

1. Heat 1 tsp oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger and minced garlic, saute 30 seconds. Add chicken broth and next 5 ingredients (through salt). Stir until well-blended. Reduce heat, and simmer 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, and keep warm.
2. Heat 2 tsp oil in large non-stick skillet over med-high heat. Add bell pepper and snow peas. Saute 5 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat. Combine shaved carrot, PB mixture, bell pepper mixture, and linguine in a large bowl. Toss well and sprinkle with cilantro.
