Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • pinch of chili garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil plus more for drizzling
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 1 cup roasted broccoli
  • 1 generous handful of lightly salted peanuts chopped
  • white or black toasted sesame seeds for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Prepare the Ramen noodles according to the directions on the package.
  • As the Ramen water is heating, chop the garlic, green onion, and peanuts.
  • While the noodles are cooking, make your sauce. Over low-medium heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, add the minced garlic and ground ginger. Cook just until fragrant, less than one minute.
  • Add the brown sugar, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, rice vinegar, and chili garlic paste. Stir until combined.
  • Slowly add the peanut butter, stirring constantly until the peanut butter is completely melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Turn off the heat and add the toasted sesame oil. Stir until combined.
  • Using a slotted spoon, drain the cooked Ramen noodles and add them to the sauce. Add the roasted broccoli. Turn the heat on low to heat the broccoli through while you cover the noodles and broccoli in sauce.
  • Top the noodles and broccoli with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, peanuts, and green onions. Serve immediately.

Notes

This recipe can be easily doubled or even tripled.
If you don't eat the sesame Ramen noodles right away, keep the peanuts, green onions, and sesame seeds separate until serving.
