honey ginger stir-fry
noodle bowlServings: 6
Ingredients
- 8 ounces ramen noodles
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
- 3 teaspoons fresh ginger grated
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cups mixed stir-fry vegetables
- ¼ cup cashews roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds toasted
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
Instructions
- Cook the noodles according to package directions, drain (be careful to NOT overcook – I like to actually undercook them by 1 minute).
- For the sauce: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together ½ cup soy sauce, ¼ cup honey, 3 tablespoon rice vinegar, 2 tablespoon peanut butter, 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce, and 3 teaspoons fresh, grated ginger (or 3 frozen cubes).
- Heat 2 teaspoons olive or sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 cups stir fry vegetables and stir-fry until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Stir in the noodles and toss to combine, cooking another 2 minutes until the sauce coats the noodles.
- Serve the noodles topped with the ¼ cup rough chopped cashews, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, and 2 thinly sliced green onions.
