Simple Sesame Noodles


This recipe comes from the amazingly talented Pioneer Woman.  I often fix these noodles for lunch but they can easily be made into dinner by adding scrambled eggs and leftover meats and veggies. They are simple to create yet the flavors are complex and blend perfectly together.  

I made these today using chow mein noodles.  Any type of Chinese or Italian will do however; save a buck and use what you have on hand. The other ingredients can be found in the oriental section of most grocery stores.


Ingredients

12 oz thin noodles, cooked and drained
1/4 c soy sauce
2 Tbsp sugar
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp rice vinegar
3 Tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp hot chili oil
4 Tbsp canola oil
2 Tbsp hot water (use the water from the noodles as they cook)
4 green onions, sliced



Directions

1. Whisk all the ingredients except the noodles and onions together. Taste and adjust as needed.

2. Warm sauce in a small saucepan.  Add the cooked noodles and toss to coat.

3. Sprinkle on green onions and serve.
