Ingredients

• 8 oz dried noodles (e.g., soba, udon, or rice noodles)
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp vegetable or canola oil
• 0.5 tsp red chili flakes (optional, for heat)
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced
• 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the dried noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain, rinse with cold water to stop the cooking, and set aside.

Step 2

While the noodles cook, steam the broccoli florets until they are bright green and tender-crisp. This should take about 3-5 minutes. Set the steamed broccoli aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, and hoisin sauce to create the sauce. Set the sauce aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the hot oil. Stir-fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 6

If using red chili flakes for a spicy kick, add them to the skillet and stir for a few seconds.

Step 7

Add the cooked noodles and steamed broccoli to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the noodles and broccoli, tossing everything together to coat evenly.

Step 8

Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the noodles and broccoli are heated through and fully coated in the sauce.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the noodles and broccoli to serving bowls or a large serving platter.

Step 10

Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Asian Noodles and Broccoli!
