Better Than Panda Chow Mein
Ingredients
- 3 pkg 5.6 Ounce Yakisoba Noodles I use the fresh Fortune Yakisoba noodles that come packaged in (3) 6ish ounce portions. They are in the refrigerator section. You could also sub three packages of ramen noodles. Discard the seasoning packs in either case
- 3 tbsp Sesame Oil
- 3 cloves Fresh Garlic
- 2 tsps Fresh Ginger
- 1/2 cup Onion Diced, (Optional)
- 4 stalks Celery Diced, (Optional)
- 2 cups Cabbage Shredded, (Optional)
- 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
- 3 tbsp Light Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
- Green Onions for Garnish Sliced, (Optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook your 3 portions of Yakisoba noodles according to the package directions (discard the seasoning packets). Be careful not to overcook, you still want them to be a little bit firm. If you are using ramen noodles, make sure you drain them well after cooking. Remove the noodles from the skillet and set aside
- Heat 3 tablespoons sesame oil in the skillet on medium-high heat. Add 3 cloves fresh garlic, 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, 1/2 cup diced onion, 4 stalks sliced celery, and 2 cups shredded cabbage to the skillet. Cook until tender (about 4-5 minutes), stirring frequently. Also, the veggies are totally optional! Feel free to leave them out if you have picky eaters like I do 🙂
- In a small bowl, mix 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1/2 cup water, and1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
- Add noodles and soy sauce mixture to the skillet and toss together for another 2-3 minutes ensuring that the noodles are completely coated. Remove from heat and serve.
