Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook noodles until al dente, approximately 6 minutes. 
  2. Meanwhile, prep your veggies / garnishes.  In a small bowl mix soy sauce, hoisin, honey, chili garlic sauce, and red pepper flakes.  
  3. A couple of minutes before the noodles are done, in a large saute pan, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds. Be sure it doesn't burn! Add sauce and stir.
  4. When noodles are done, drain and add immediately to pan with sauce and stir until the noodles are well coated. 
  5. Top with carrots, peanuts, cilantro, green onion, and Sriracha. Mix and serve!

Notes

  • *Use a regular sesame oil. A dark, toasted sesame oil is meant more for a final drizzle after the dish has been cooked.  If used during cooking it could add a slightly burnt or bitter taste to the dish.
  • Add Protein:  Your shrimp, tofu, or chicken by cooking them in the sesame oil, first.  
  • Add Vegetables: Add your favorite vegetable by either cooking them in the sesame oil first.
  • If adding additional vegetables or a protein, definitely double the sauce, at least.
