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
- 1–2 tablespoons cooking oil (vegetable or sesame oil)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
