Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225 g) lo mein noodles or spaghetti
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup snap peas
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce (or hoisin sauce for vegetarian option)
- 1 tbsp honey or brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp grated ginger
- Optional: chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the noodles: Prepare the lo mein noodles or spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain and toss with 1 tbsp sesame oil to prevent sticking.
- Sauté the vegetables: Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant. Stir in broccoli, carrots, bell pepper, and snap peas. Sauté for 3–5 minutes until tender-crisp.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, and honey (or sugar).
- Combine: Add cooked noodles to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over and toss to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes to warm through.
- Serve: Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
- Vegetable swaps: Use mushrooms, bok choy, or zucchini for variety.
- Protein boost: Add cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a heartier dish.
- Storage: Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet for best results.
