Mongolian Ground Beef Noodles combines savory beef, glossy soy-hoisin sauce, garlic, ginger, and wide noodles for a quick, flavorful weeknight dinner.
- 1 pound ground beef 80/20 or 85/15
- 12 ounces wide noodles or lo mein noodles
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 4 green onions sliced
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha or ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Cook noodles until al dente, toss lightly to prevent sticking, and set aside.
Brown the ground beef in a hot skillet and drain excess fat.
Sauté garlic and ginger briefly in the center of the pan until fragrant.
Whisk the sauce ingredients, pour into the skillet, and simmer until thick and glossy.
Add noodles, toss to coat, mix in sesame oil and green onions, and serve hot.
