A favorite, try this versatile crunchy peanut mixture with braised-chicken-thigh lettuce wraps.

Ingredients

Makes about 1 cup

1 large scallion, green parts only, thinly sliced

3/4 cup coarsely chopped unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro

1 tablespoon light brown sugar

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Step 1

Combine scallion, peanuts, cilantro, and brown sugar in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Use immediately. (Don't prepare this relish ahead of time—the cilantro will make the peanuts soggy.)
