Ingredients
Scale
Hibachi Noodles
- 1 lb. linguine or noodles/pasta of choice, cooked al dente
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Melt the Butter: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter to create a rich, savory base for the noodles.
- Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the Noodles: Toss the cooked noodles into the skillet and stir well to coat them evenly with the garlic-butter mixture.
- Incorporate the Sauces: Stir in the sugar, soy sauce, and teriyaki sauce. Toss the noodles thoroughly to ensure even coating with the flavorful sauce.
- Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, stirring well to combine all flavors.
- Drizzle with Sesame Oil: Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle sesame oil over the noodles to add a nutty aroma and enhance flavor.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired. Serve the hibachi noodles hot, ideally alongside hibachi-style meats or stir-fried vegetables for a complete meal.

- You can substitute linguine with any noodle or pasta of choice, such as spaghetti, udon, or ramen noodles.
- Adjust the sugar quantity based on your preferred sweetness level.
