Ingredients

Scale

Noodles

  • 8 oz rice noodles or lo mein noodles

Vegetables

  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 medium carrots, julienned
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1 cup broccoli florets

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup water (for thinning sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Aromatics & Oils

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (divided)

Garnishes

  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Noodles: Cook the rice noodles or lo mein noodles according to the package instructions. Drain well, drizzle with a little sesame oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring quickly until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chopped bell pepper, carrots, snap peas, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 4 to 6 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp and vibrant.
  3. Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce or tamari, honey or maple syrup, water, and cornstarch if using. Pour the sauce over the vegetables in the skillet and let it bubble gently until it thickens slightly and coats the veggies.
  4. Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked noodles into the skillet with the vegetables and teriyaki sauce. Toss everything together thoroughly so that every strand and veggie is coated. Cook for an additional minute to warm through.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Sprinkle chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds evenly over the dish. Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

  • Prep all vegetables before starting for smooth cooking.
  • Use high heat to keep vegetables crisp and flavorful.
  • Undercook noodles slightly since they will finish cooking in the sauce.
  • Taste and adjust sauce balance for preferred sweetness or saltiness.
  • Use fresh garlic and ginger for best aroma and flavor.
