Ingredients

• 12 oz spaghetti (or lo mein noodles)
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 tbsp fresh ginger
• 1 red bell pepper
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 carrot
• 3 stalks green onion
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp sriracha sauce
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 2 tsp cornstarch
• 0.25 cup water
• 1 lb optional protein (chicken, tofu, shrimp, or beef)
• 0.5 tsp red chili flakes
• 0.5 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

If using a protein, slice it into bite-sized pieces and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, sriracha sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, and water. Whisk until smooth and set aside.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

If using protein, add it to the skillet and cook until fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Add red bell pepper slices, broccoli florets, and julienned carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked protein (if using) to the skillet and add the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over the mixture and toss everything together until the noodles are evenly coated and heated through.

Step 8

Sprinkle in red chili flakes and drizzle with sesame oil. Toss one final time to combine.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onion and toasted sesame seeds.
