Ingredients
- 8 ounces linguine spaghetti or vermicelli noodles, cooked until al dente (I used fettuccine)
- ¼ cup vegetable oil I just used enough to coat my pan
- 1 tsp dried red pepper flakes I would cut this in half unless you like things really spicy
- 2 cups fresh mushrooms sliced (I didn't have any of these)
- 1 carrot peeled and sliced into thin strips (didn't have these either)
- 1 red bell pepper sliced (I had some red and yellow)
- 1 onion sliced
- 2 Tbsp garlic minced (I only used 1 Tbsp. 2 sounded too much)
- 2 tsp ginger minced
- 1 green onion chopped (I didn't have this)
- I added 1 stalk of celery sliced
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup hoisin sauce
- 2 Tbsp honey
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- ¼ tsp curry powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- You can add any left over meat if you want. Beef chicken or pork would work well. I used 6 thick slices of pork loin.
Instructions
- In a small bowl mix together chicken broth and cornstarch. Set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok. Add the red pepper flakes and stir fry for 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, carrots, onion, red pepper, garlic and ginger (or whatever veggies you have). Stir fry until tender. Add in green onion and stir fry for 1 minute.
- Add in the chicken broth/ cornstarch mixture along with the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, and curry powder. Stirring until sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (I warmed up my left over meat in the microwave and added it here)
- Mix sauce with cooked noodles tossing to coat and serve. (Makes 4 servings)
