STIR-FRIED BABY SQUASH, LONG BEANS, CORN AND CHILES WITH SOBA NOODLES

Steps:

• First cook the soba noodles. Bring 3 or 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt to taste. Add the noodles gradually, so that the water remains at a boil, and stir once with a long-handled spoon or pasta fork so that they don't stick together. Wait for the water to come back up to a rolling boil - it will bubble up, so don't fill the pot all the way - and add 1 cup of cold water. Allow the water to come back to a rolling boil, and add another cup of cold water. Allow the water to come to a boil one more time, and add a third cup of water. When the water comes to a boil again, the noodles should be cooked through. Drain and toss with the sesame oil in a bowl and set aside.
• Prepare the vegetables. The squash, corn and white parts of the scallions can be in one bowl, the beans should be in another.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup combine the soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, and stock or water. Combine the salt, pepper and sugar in another small bowl and the garlic, ginger, and chiles in another. Have all of the ingredients within arm's length of your pan.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Add the oil by pouring it on the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the garlic, ginger and chiles and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Add the long beans and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the squash, corn and the white part of the scallions and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, and sugar, toss together and add the soy sauce mixture. Stir-fry for 1 minute, or until most of the liquid has cooked off. Remove from the heat and transfer to a platter or bowl. Add the noodles to the hot wok, toss until heated through, and divide among plates. Top with the vegetables and serve.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH STIR FRY RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Place the squash halves, cut-side up, on a baking sheet. Coat the exposed flesh with the canola oil, then sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon salt. Flip over so the cut side is down, then bake for 40-50 minutes, until the squash is just barely tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
• Line a baking sheet with 2 clean kitchen towels.
• Use a fork to scrape out the "spaghetti" strands from the squash onto the prepared baking sheet and season with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, tossing to distribute. Let cool for 30 minutes. The spaghetti squash can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days. If using from the cold, remove the squash from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
• While the squash is cooling, make the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Grate the garlic on a microplane directly into the bowl. Add the ginger, red pepper flakes, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and rice vinegar and stir to incorporate. Whisk in the water until smooth.
• Make the stir fry: Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a 12-inch skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 clove of garlic and stir for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the chicken, ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes, and ½ teaspoon salt and stir to coat. Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes, letting it brown without stirring, until no pink remains and the chicken is cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate or bowl.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Without wiping out the pan, add the remaining tablespoon canola oil, remaining garlic clove, and remaining ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the bell peppers and broccoli, stir to coat, then deglaze the pan with the water, scraping up all the browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is starting to soften, 8-10 minutes.
• Add the carrots and cook for another 2 minutes, then add the snow peas and season with a pinch of salt. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, until all of the vegetables are tender. Transfer the vegetables to the plate with the chicken.
• Roll up the spaghetti squash in the kitchen towels and wring to squeeze as much water as possible.
• Add 2 tablespoons of sauce to the pan and let come to a simmer, then add the spaghetti squash and stir constantly until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Divide the squash among serving bowls.
• Pour the remaining sauce into the pan and let simmer for about 1 minute, until thickened. Return the chicken and vegetables to the pan and toss to coat evenly in the sauce and heat everything through, 2-3 minutes. Divide among the bowls atop the squash. Garnish each bowl with thinly sliced scallions. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
