This is really delicious and fun to eat!! It is a bit time consuming because of all the chopping, but it's worth it! Good to make on a weekend. The sauce can also be made days in advance and refrigerated. If the peanut sauce is too thick for you just add more chicken stock little by little until you get your desired texture.
