Easy Teriyaki Noodles
This is a simple version of Teriyaki Noodles. It’s super easy to make and a crowd pleaser. Best part? The noodles are all done in 30 minutes. Pair with a simple salad for a meat-free meal, or, with your favorite simple chicken or salmon for a complete dish.
Start with chopping the veggies. Slice the carrots into match sticks or “julienned". The mushrooms can be sliced as below, or if they are on the smaller side, quartered.
Cut the green onion two ways. The white parts are sliced thin.
Slice the green tops at an angle, as they will be mostly for garnish.
After chopping, pull the sauce together.
Add the sauce ingredients to a measuring cup or small bowl.
Whisk the sauce all together, and place to the side until ready to use.
Heat the canola oil in a deep skillet. We use our Hestan NanoBond Essential Pan. Add the carrots and onions.
After sautéing the carrots and onions for a few minutes, add the mushrooms. Stir as not to over brown, but let everything soften a bit.
Add the frozen peas that have been rinsed. Stir all together until warmed through. Remove the veggies to a bowl and keep warm.
At this point, the noodles should be boiling. Once they are done, in about 4-6 minutes, drain and set to the side until ready to use.
Using the same pan, add the sauce. Bring to a boil and simmer for just a minute.
Add the noodles into the simmering sauce, stir well to coat all the noodles.
Yum! It’s almost done.
Return the veggies to the pan, along with the noodles in the sauce. Stir well. Add the green onion tops just at the last minute, saving a few for a garnish.
