Steps

  1. 1

    Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking; set aside.

  2. 2

    While noodles cook, brown ground pork in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain excess fat.

  3. 3

    In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, grated ginger, and minced garlic until smooth.

  4. 4

    Add the cooked pork to the skillet. Pour the peanut sauce over the pork and stir to coat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

  5. 5

    Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the pork and sauce. Toss everything together until the noodles are thoroughly coated.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately, garnished with chopped peanuts and sliced green onions.
