Easy Ginger Garlic Noodles Recipe

Ingredient: 

1 + 1/2 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger
4 big cloves garlic, minced
1 lb. pasta (gluten free if desired)
4 Tbsp. olive oil
salt + pepper
2 Tbsp. soy sauce or gluten free tamari*
1 and 1/4 cup pasta water
10 oz. broccoli (about 2 cups), cut into bite-sized pieces
2+ tsp. sesame oil
1 Tbsp. honey (or maple syrup for vegans)*
red pepper flakes (optional)

To garnish: sliced green onion, sesame seeds

Directions

Cook pasta according to package directions.** Reserve 1 and 1/4 cup of pasta water before draining. You'll need it in a sec.

While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat (it should be large enough to hold your pasta once it's done cooking), Add ginger and garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Don't let the garlic brown too much.

Add pasta water and broccoli, season with salt and pepper, cover, and cook for 5-10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.

When your broccoli is tender, add your noodles and toss with kitchen tongs to combine. Pour your sauce mixture over top and toss. Finish with sesame oil, and toss once again. Taste, and adjust salt and pepper if necessary. I added both.

Serve immediately, or eat straight from the fridge.
