15 Minute Buttery Garlic Ginger Noodles
These garlic ginger noodles are sweet, salty, buttery, and totally delicious. They're quick and easy, and you probably already have most of the ingredients in your pantry!
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
- 1 tablespoon scallions chopped
- 4 ounces spaghetti
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil a salted pot of water for the noodles (I used spaghetti but feel free to use rice noodles or something else). Cook the spaghetti al dente according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, add all the other ingredients except for salt & pepper to a skillet. Once the pasta is a few minutes from being ready, turn the burner on medium heat. Let everything melt together and give it a good stir. It'll soon start to bubble. Let it bubble gently for a minute or so until the garlic cooks and the sauce thickens a bit.
- Once the pasta is done, drain it and then add it to the skillet and toss it with the sauce. Season with salt & pepper as needed.
Notes
- I count the prep time in the cook time since you can prep/make the sauce while the water for the noodles is boiling.
- I garnished this dish with sesame seeds for the photos, but I don't think it's really necessary for the recipe if you don't happen to have any.
- This is the handy grater/zester I use for the ginger.
