Ingredients

• 8 ounces of egg noodles or rice noodles

• 3 tablespoons of soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds
• Salt and pepper to taste

How to Make Soy Glazed Noodles with Beef

1. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3. Add the sliced beef to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until browned and cooked through.
4. Once the beef is cooked, reduce the heat to medium and add soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil to the skillet. Stir to coat the beef evenly.
5. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet. Toss everything together until the noodles are heated through and well coated in the sauce, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Cut the beef against the grain for more tender bites.
• Marinate the beef in soy sauce and a little cornstarch for 15 minutes before cooking to enhance flavor and tenderness.
• For extra crunch, add vegetables such as bell peppers, snap peas, or broccoli when cooking the beef.
• Adjust the soy sauce and hoisin sauce to your taste for a sweeter or saltier glaze.

Easy Variations

• Substitute the beef with chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a different protein option.
• Add sautéed vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, or bok choy for added nutrition and color.
• For a spicy kick, include red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha in the sauce.

What to Serve With It

• Steamed broccoli or bok choy for a nutritious side.
• A simple cucumber salad with sesame dressing to add a refreshing crunch.
• Egg rolls or spring rolls for a delightful appetizer.
