Udon Stir Fry: Spicy Black Pepper Noodles
Black Pepper Udon: stir-fry this bright, spicy noodle dish in under 20 minutes. Perfect for a quick and satisfying weeknight meal.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- a little bit of neutral oil
- 2 cups stir fry veggies (I use about half of a bag of a frozen stir fry veggie blend)
- two 7-ounce packages of udon noodles (the cooked, fat, squishy ones, like this – see post for more noodle options)
- 1-2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- a ton of freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine 3 tablespoons dark soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar in a jar and shake well.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a swish of neutral oil. Add the udon noodles and enough sauce to coat. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until caramelized.
- Add the stir fry veggies and pour a little more sauce over everything. Toss for 2-3 minutes until the veggies are fork-tender and everything is browned and sticky.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1-2 cloves of freshly minced garlic and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper for a spicy kick.
