Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb linguine or noodles/pasta of choice, cooked al dente
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Melt the Butter: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter to create a rich, savory base for the noodles.
- Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the Noodles: Toss the cooked noodles into the skillet and stir well to coat them evenly in the garlic-butter mixture.
- Incorporate the Sauces: Stir in the sugar, soy sauce, and teriyaki sauce, mixing thoroughly to evenly coat the noodles with the flavorful sauce.
- Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, stirring well to combine all flavors.
- Drizzle with Sesame Oil: Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle sesame oil over the noodles to add a nutty aroma and enhance the flavor.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the noodles if desired and serve the hibachi noodles hot, ideally alongside hibachi-style dishes.
Notes
- Cook noodles al dente to prevent them from becoming mushy during stir-frying.
- Adjust soy sauce and sugar levels to balance saltiness and sweetness based on preference.
- For added protein, consider adding grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
- Use low-sodium soy sauce for a healthier option.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the freshest texture and flavors.
