Ingredients
8 ounces Ground Beef2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 teaspoons Rice Vinegar
1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
1 tablespoon Chili Oil
1 tablespoon Dark Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Sugar
4 cloves Garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
2 whole Green Onions (sliced)
1⁄4 cup Chicken Broth
2 tablespoons Tahini
8 ounces White Chinese Noodles (medium thickness)
1⁄4 cup Peanuts (crushed)
Directions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Chinese noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Rinse with cold water then drain, set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili oil, dark soy sauce, sugar, chicken broth, and tahini until smooth.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onions to the cooked beef. Stir-fry for a minute until fragrant. Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and bring it to a simmer, stirring occasionally until it thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the beef and sauce. Toss everything together until the noodles are well coated and heated through.
- Serve hot, topped with a drizzle of chili oil, green onion slices, and crushed peanuts.
