Spicy Sesame-Soy Rice Noodles
This is such a simple and tasty side that I threw together the day after I made the Balsamic Glazed Chicken. I had leftover cooked rice noodles so I decided to reuse them in another dish.
Ingredients
- Cooked pad thai rice noodles - about half of a package
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1/4 c chicken broth
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (less or more depending on how much heat you like)
- Handful of chopped cilantro
Directions
- Heat the olive and sesame oils in a large saute pan or wok over medium high heat
- Add the garlic; saute 1-2 minutes
- Add the noodles and toss for just a few seconds
- Add the soy sauce, broth, and red pepper flakes and toss
- Stir in the cilantro, or us it as a garnish
I think that took all of 5 minutes. Even if you didn't have cooked noodles on-hand, they only take about 6-7 minutes, so this dish is still under 15 minutes from start to finish. And delicious!
