Ingredients

Scale

Noodles

  • Rice or egg noodles, enough for 4 servings

Vegetables

  • 1 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for topping)

Sauce and Aromatics

  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

Other

  • 12 tablespoons cooking oil (vegetable or sesame oil)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Noodles: Cook your choice of rice or egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  2. Stir-Fry the Vegetables: Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add diced bell peppers, sliced carrots, and broccoli florets. Stir-fry the vegetables for approximately 5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
  3. Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the mixture and stir thoroughly to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through and well combined.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Transfer the teriyaki noodles with veggies to serving bowls. Top with sliced green onions and sprinkle with sesame seeds for added flavor and texture. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use fresh vegetables for the best texture and flavor.
  • Do not overcook the noodles; keep them al dente to prevent getting mushy once mixed with the sauce.
  • If homemade teriyaki sauce is preferred, whisk together soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and a splash of rice vinegar.
  • Cook vegetables quickly over high heat to lock in flavor and retain a crunch.
  • Toast sesame seeds lightly before garnishing for a richer nutty aroma.
