Description
Sticky beef noodles are a savory delight that marries tender beef with perfectly cooked noodles, all enveloped in a rich, glossy sauce. This dish is ideal for busy weeknights or special occasions, as it can be prepared in under 30 minutes. With a tantalizing blend of soy sauce, garlic, and ginger, each bite bursts with flavor. Plus, it’s incredibly versatile—feel free to add your favorite vegetables or swap out the beef for chicken or tofu.
Ingredients
- Thinly sliced flank steak or sirloin
- Egg noodles or rice noodles
- Low-sodium soy sauce
- Garlic cloves
- Fresh ginger
- Brown sugar
- Cornstarch
Instructions
- Cook the chosen noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine sliced beef with soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and brown sugar; marinate for 10 minutes.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the marinated beef until browned (3-4 minutes) then remove from the pan.
- In the same skillet, create the sauce by adding more oil if needed and additional garlic/ginger. Mix in soy sauce combined with cornstarch dissolved in water until thickened.
- Add the cooked noodles and sautéed beef back into the pan; toss to coat evenly in the sauce. Serve hot with garnishes like green onions or sesame seeds.
