Sesame Noodles with Peanut Sauce

This was as good as any restaurants peanut sauce I have tried. I had the chicken and sauce for two lunches after I had it for dinner. And I still am not sick of it.

Peanut Sauce
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup chunky/creamy peanut butter
4 medium cloves garlic , minced or pressed through garlic press (about 2 teaspoons)
2 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
5 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
4 tablespoons packed light brown sugar

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon salt
12 ounces dried spaghetti noodles

Optional
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil (to coat noodles)
green onions

Toast sesame seeds in a skillet for 10 minutes, or until golden and fragrant. Add rest of ingredients in a blender and blend until mixed well. Add toasted seeds (save 2 TB if you want to sprinkle them on top).

Broil chicken for 8 or so minutes per side (When I broil chicken, I usually just put some olive oil, kosher salt and pepper to flavor).
Shred chicken with fork.
Cook noodles, add salt to boiling water.
Pour sauce over noodles, add chicken, sprinkle sesame seeds and green onions on top and VIOLA! Yummy bummy.
