Boil pasta in salted water. Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining.

Whisk garlic, ginger, soy sauce, tahini, peanut butter, vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and chili paste until smooth and glossy.

Toss noodles with about ⅔ of the sauce, adding pasta water as needed to emulsify and coat.

Finish with chopped peanuts, green onions, and a generous sprinkle of sesame seeds. Spoon a little of the extra sauce over the top. Serve with roasted chicken and broccoli on the side, or just enjoy the straight up. So good!
