What are Teriyaki Noodles?
Teriyaki noodles are not your average bowl of noodles! Wide linguine noodles are coated in a flavorful sweet and savory teriyaki sauce for a dish that’s ready in just 20 minutes! The noodles are cooked, the garlic is sautéed, and the simple sauce is mixed together, then everything is tossed together for major deliciousness. Not only is this recipe ridiculously simple to make, but it also outshines any restaurant version.
Ingredients You’ll Need
This teriyaki noodle recipe uses common ingredients that you can find at your local grocery store, most of which are pantry staples. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.
Noodles: I like to use linguine noodles in this recipe because they are wider noodles and can really hold onto the rich sauce. Sesame Oil is the cooking oil for sautéing the garlic. While you can substitute other oils, sesame oil adds a lovely nutty flavor. Garlic: Freshly minced garlic for delicious savoriness. Soy Sauce: The base of the sauce adds a wonderful savory, umami taste. Rice Vinegar: Adds tanginess and a little acidity. Brown Sugar: Balances the flavors and adds a touch of sweetness. Ginger: For a warm, spiced flavor, you can use 2 tsp fresh ginger, grated, or ½ tsp powdered ginger. Cornstarch: This is added to the sauce for thickening. Green Onion: For garnish to add extra flavor and a pop of color before serving! Garnish: For a bit of heat and texture, I like to add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes and sesame seeds before serving. Water: Use if needed to thin the sauce.
Easy Teriyaki Noodle Recipe
This noodle recipe is super easy to make! It takes a total of 20 minutes from start to finish, which makes this a great dish for busy nights. You can even add in the protein of your choice to make this a little bit heartier!
Noodles: My family loves the linguine noodles in this recipe, but feel free to use any kind of noodles you have on hand. Try using spaghetti or even rice noodles. Vegetables: Add in any veggies you want! Cook or stir fry the veggies before tossing them in before serving. I like to add broccoli, bell peppers, snow peas, mushrooms, and shredded carrots! Protein: Make this a hearty meal by adding cooked chicken, pork, or steak, you could even add in some tofu! It’s a great way to use up any leftover meat from previous meals. Add Some Heat: I LOVE to make these noodles spicy. I garnish my individual bowl with sliced jalapeños and a drizzle of sriracha sauce or chili oil.
In the Refrigerator: Teriyaki noodles will stay good in your fridge for about 3-4 days in an airtight container. To Reheat: Pop leftovers in the microwave for a minute or two. Another great way is to reheat them in a pan on the stove. Just toss them in there, warm them over medium heat, stirring occasionally, and in a few minutes, you’ll have some noodles ready to enjoy all over again!
Note: If your noodles are dry or sticking to each other, you can add a splash of water or beef broth to add some moisture back in when reheating.
