Preparation

To make chicken, in a zip-close bag, combine oil, soy sauce, curry powder, chili paste and garlic. Add chicken breasts, turn to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably several hours.

Remove chicken from marinade, discard marinade. Grill chicken on medium high until done through, turning once. Cut into strips.

To make peanut sauce, in a large skillet, combine all sauce ingredients except chicken stock and cook until stiff, 5 to 10 minutes. Slowly add stock, stirring to mix thoroughly; cook another 5 minutes until smooth and creamy. Can be made ahead of time. Cover and refrigerate.

To serve, in a skillet stir peanut sauce and chicken stock until bubbling, add chicken, let sizzle until peanut sauce glazes chicken. Simultaneously, heat oil in a large, heavy wok. Toss in garlic, bell pepper, carrot, red onion and Chinese broccoli, stirring until lightly cooked. Add soy sauce and chili paste, then cooked noodles.

To serve Bobo-style, arrange vegetables and noodles in a white oval sloped bowl. Top with chicken, drizzle with hot peanut sauce and top with a few sprigs cilantro.
