Excellent as is! I was expecting a peanut butter sauce, so when I came to make it, I thought, oh! This is so nice, different and very tasty! the balsamic vinegar is an unexpected touch, and you do have to like the taste, which we do! I omitted the chilli because the youngsters don't enjoy them, but if it were just DH and I, I would add them. I didn't use the oil in the dressing, it seemed to me that the dish was quite moist enough. I'm sure that it would make a difference, but we enjoyed it very much like this. Made for My-3-Chefs, November 08, thanks, Chef Orgazmo!
