Ingredients

6 servings

1 tbsp neutral oil (such as canola oil or vegetable oil)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
½ cup natural peanut butter (creamy)
½ cup full-fat coconut milk
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
¼ tsp red pepper flakes
2–4 tbsp water, as needed

For serving

1 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
1 tsp crushed roasted peanuts (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and just softened, about 1 minute — watch closely so the garlic does not brown.
2
Add the peanut butter, coconut milk, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Whisk together until smooth and fully combined.
