Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz spaghetti or fresh lo mein noodles
- 1 lb ground chicken or ground pork
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp chili garlic sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 cup bean sprouts (optional)
- 2 tbsp crushed peanuts (optional)
Instructions
Cook the spaghetti or lo mein noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sugar, water, and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add ground chicken or pork to the skillet and cook, breaking it into crumbles, until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Pour the prepared sauce mixture into the skillet and stir well to coat the meat. Bring to a simmer and allow the sauce to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss thoroughly to combine with the sauce and meat.
Mix in sliced green onions and, if desired, bean sprouts.
Serve hot, garnished with crushed peanuts for added crunch if preferred.
