Our temperature dropped over 20 degrees in one day.  I was looking for something cozy to eat.  I had torn this recipe out of a magazine and it seemed like a good day to try it.  It is a definite keeper for me. 

1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 T low sodium soy sauce
2 T creamy peanut butter
1 T chili garlic sauce
1 T cornstarch
2 t brown sugar
2 t toasted sesame oil

1 T peanut oil
1 pound ground pork
1 T minced garlic
1 T minced ginger
1/2 cup minced cilantro
Chopped dry roasted peanuts 

Whisk together first 8 ingredients and set aside.

Heat oil in large skillet over med high heat.  Add ground pork and crumble.  Crush with a potato masher to break up chunks. When cooked through add garlic and ginger and cook 1 minute.  Stir in broth mixture, simmer until thickened (about 2 minutes).  Stir in cilantro.  Serve over noodles and garnish with peanuts. 

Recipe called for stir fry noodles and the grocery store I was at only had rice noodles so I used very thin spaghetti.

Thank you this sounds wonderful.  I am going to have to use left over pork butt, since I don't have ground pork.  I think it will be just as tasty.
