Chili Garlic Noodles
Ingredients
- 8 oz 225 g noodles of choice
- 5 –6 cloves garlic (finely minced)
- ¼ cup water (plus more to splash as needed)
- 1 tsp chili flakes (or chili garlic sauce, ½–1 tbsp, to taste)
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar or lime juice
- 1 scallion (sliced at an angle)
- Optional: 1–2 cups steamed veggies (broccoli, bok choy, mushrooms)
Instructions
- Cook noodles according to package instructions, drain and set aside.
- In a pan over medium heat, add garlic and water or broth. Cook gently until fragrant (about 45 seconds).
- Stir in chili garlic sauce or chili flakes, then add soy sauce and vinegar or lime juice. Stir to heat through and combine.
- Add the cooked noodles to the pan and toss well so the sauce coats the noodles evenly. Add a splash of broth if needed for extra sauciness.
- Remove from heat and finish with scallions (and veggies if using).
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
