Description
A delightful Noodle Bowl with Pork & Cabbage Slaw perfect for busy weeknights, customizable and family-friendly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces LoMein Noodles (Substitution: Spaghetti or udon noodles work as alternatives if needed.)
- 1 pound Ground Pork (Note: You can use ground chicken, turkey, or tofu for a lighter option.)
- 2 tablespoons Peanut Oil (Substitution: Vegetable or canola oil is suitable if needed.)
- 1 cup Low-sodium Chicken Broth (Tip: Opting for low-sodium helps control the overall saltiness.)
- 2 tablespoons Mirin (Substitution: Combine rice vinegar with a pinch of sugar if mirin isn’t handy.)
- 2 tablespoons Dark Soy Sauce (Note: Regular soy sauce can work if you add a bit of molasses for richness.)
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic (Tip: Fresh ingredients truly elevate the taste.)
- 1 tablespoon Grated Ginger (Tip: Fresh ingredients truly elevate the taste.)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha (Tip: Adjust the amount to satisfy your heat preference or consider chili crisp for added texture.)
- 4 stalks Green Onions (Note: Use more green parts for an extra zing.)
- 4 cups Coleslaw Mix (Note: Freshly shredded cabbage can be used in place of mixed coleslaw for a homemade twist.)
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook LoMein noodles according to package instructions. Once tender, drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking and prevent clumping. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat peanut oil. Add the ground pork and ¼ cup of sliced green onions. Sauté until the pork is browned and fully cooked, about 5-6 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together low-sodium chicken broth, mirin, dark soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and sriracha. This savory mix will be the flavorful embrace for your noodle bowl. Set aside.
- Add the cooked noodles, coleslaw mix, and the prepared sauce to the skillet with the cooked pork. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
- Using tongs, toss everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. This allows the sauce to coat the noodles and vegetables evenly. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the remaining sliced green onions.
Notes
- Tip: Fresh ingredients truly elevate the taste.
- Note: Use more green parts for an extra zing.
- Note: Regular soy sauce can work if you add a bit of molasses for richness.
