Ingredients
- 8 oz stir fry noodles (such as rice noodles, soba, or lo mein)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- 1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch + 2 tablespoons water (for slurry)
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Instructions
- Cook the noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, rice vinegar, maple syrup, brown sugar, and sesame oil. In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to form a slurry.
- Heat sesame oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture into the pan, bring to a simmer, then stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked noodles to the pan and toss to coat evenly in the sauce.
- Serve hot, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes

- Add tofu, tempeh, or a protein of choice for added substance.
- Use tamari for a gluten-free version.
