Place lid on pot and turn on high. Let it come to a boil, give it a stir, and reduce to a simmer.
Cover and cook for about 6 minutes.

There will be a small amount of sauce in the bottom.
Serve topped with remaining scallions, cilantro and peanuts, with a lime slice to squeeze if desired.
Notes
If you are adding chicken, make sure it's sliced nice and thin so it cooks quickly. Rice noodles will cook faster than linguine, so keep that in mine of you sub them.Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. While this dish is best enjoyed fresh, you can reheat it gently with a splash of water to restore moisture.
