Ingredients

Scale

Noodles

  • 200g rice noodles, soba, or spaghetti

Vegetables

  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1 large carrot, julienned
  • 3 green onions, sliced (white and green parts separated)

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (or tamari/coconut aminos for gluten-free)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Aromatics & Oil

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

Optional Protein

  • 200g tofu, chicken, or shrimp (optional)

Garnishes

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced (green parts)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain well and toss with a little sesame oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat a splash of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chopped vegetables and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3-5 minutes depending on the vegetables.
  3. Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and cornstarch. Pour the sauce over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to coat everything evenly.
  4. Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and gently toss all ingredients together over medium heat. Allow the noodles to absorb some sauce and heat through, stirring frequently.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

  • Prep ingredients in advance to speed up cooking.
  • Do not overcook vegetables; keep them crisp-tender for best texture and color.
  • Use fresh garlic and ginger for a deeper flavor.
  • Toss noodles in sesame oil after cooking to prevent clumping.
  • Lightly toast sesame seeds before garnishing to enhance nutty aroma.
