Ingredients
| ¼ | cup creamy SKIPPY® Peanut Butter |
| 2 | tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce |
| 1 | tablespoon rice vinegar |
| 1 | tablespoon honey or brown sugar |
| 2 | teaspoons chili crisp or sriracha, optional |
| 2 | tablespoons vegetable oil, divided |
| 1 | (12-ounce) can SPAM® classic, diced |
| 4 | cups shredded green cabbage |
| 1 | cup shredded carrots |
| 3 | green onions, sliced, whites and greens separated |
| 2 | cloves garlic, minced |
| 1 | teaspoon fresh ginger, grated |
| ⅓ | cup PLANTERS® Dry Roasted Peanuts, roughly chopped |
| Sesame seeds, optional, for garnish | |
| Lime wedges, optional, for garnish |
Directions
Whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey and chili crisp in a small bowl until smooth, adding warm water as needed, until a pourable sauce forms, about 2-4 tablespoons. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add SPAM® classic and cook until golden-brown and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
Heat remaining oil, and add cabbage, carrots and white parts of green onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add reserved peanut sauce mixture and SPAM® classic back to skillet, tossing gently to coat, and cook until just heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat, and garnish with peanuts, remaining green onions, sesame seeds and a squeeze of lime.
