Directions

Spray a nonstick pan with nonstick spray and heat over high heat.
Add the chicken in a single layer and sprinkle with Tasty Thai Seasoning. Cook for 4 minutes until browned on one side.
Using tongs, flip the chicken pieces over and cook for one minute more until done. Pour chicken into a bowl and set aside, keeping it warm.
Place the pan back over the heat and add the broth. Using a spatula, scrape all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan.
Add the peanut butter and stir until melted. Bring mixture to a boil and let it cook until it's thick and the sauce is reduced by half.
Add the zoodles to the pan and using tongs, pull the sauce up through the zucchini so that it cooks. Do this for about 1-2 minutes until zucchini is crisp tender. Add the chicken back to the pan and again, using the tongs, mix together until the chicken is hot. Serve immediately
Enjoy!
