Ingredients
Scale
Noodles
- 1 lb yakisoba, lo mein, or spaghetti
Sauce
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
Other
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the noodles or pasta just before they become completely soft or al dente so they still have a slight bite. Drain and set aside.
- Prepare Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, light brown sugar, minced garlic, and minced ginger until well combined.
- Sauté Noodles: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter and melt it. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, cooking them until they develop a slight coloring or light browning.
- Add Sauce: Pour the prepared sauce over the noodles and toss thoroughly to combine. Continue cooking for 2 to 3 minutes, allowing the sauce to meld into the noodles.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the noodles for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy your hibachi noodles.
Notes
- Use yakisoba or lo mein noodles for the most authentic hibachi flavor, but spaghetti works as a substitute.
- Adjust the brown sugar to taste if you desire a sweeter or less sweet sauce.
- For a gluten-free version, use tamari or gluten-free soy sauce and gluten-free noodles.
- Add vegetables like sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, or scallions for more texture and nutrition.
- Cook noodles just before al dente to prevent them from becoming mushy during stir-frying.
- Use a large skillet or wok for even cooking and to allow space for tossing noodles.
