  4. Remove chicken from saucepan and set aside to cool slightly. Discard peppercorns and bay leaf.
  5. Shred the chicken and place in a large bowl.

  7. Pour the peanut sauce over the shredded chicken and let it marinate for 5 minutes.
  8. Cook soba noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  9. Add cooked soba noodles, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, 1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper, and 1/4 cup sliced green onions to the chicken mixture. Toss gently to combine.
  10. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped peanuts and garnish with lime slices, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
