This dish is full of ingredients that you can store in your pantry, such as noodles, soy sauce, and tahini (sesame paste).

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound Chinese egg noodles, spaghetti, or linguine
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
6 tablespoons sesame paste (tahini) or peanut butter
3/4 cup water, plus more if needed
1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 scallion (both white and green parts), thinly sliced
1 1/2 inches of fresh ginger, peeled and chopped (1 tablespoon)
Chinese chili oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the noodles, and cook until just barely tender, 5 to 6 minutes, or according to the package instructions. Drain well. Toss them with the sesame oil to coat. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, thin the sesame paste by stirring enough water into the paste to achieve the consistency of thick cream. Whisk together the vinegar, soy sauce, and sugar. Add the mixture to the sesame paste. Stir in the garlic, three quarters of the scallion, and the ginger.
  • Just before serving, toss the chilled noodles with the sauce. Garnish with the remaining scallion and drizzle with the chili oil, if using.

TAKEOUT-STYLE SESAME NOODLES



Takeout-Style Sesame Noodles image

Noodles dressed with sesame are popular in many parts of China, but this particular style, made with peanut butter and served cold, became a Chinese-American staple in the United States in the 1970s. The family of Shorty Tang - an ambitious restaurateur who emigrated from Sichuan to Taipei to New York - firmly believes that he invented the dish and still serve it at Hwa Yuan, the restaurant he opened in 1967 in Manhattan's Chinatown. They have never divulged the exact recipe; this is our own lush but refreshing version.

HOISIN SAUCE NOODLES WITH CHICKEN



Hoisin Sauce Noodles with Chicken image

My father would make this super spicy chicken dish ("Hacked Chicken") where the chicken was gently poached without seasonings and then topped with a super spicy sauce. I always loved that dish; the chicken was like a blank canvas and this jarringly spicy topping just woke it up. In college, I created this dorm room hybrid, bulking it up for my roommates with a pound of pasta, and I randomly added hoisin sauce (because I had a jar of it). The dish looks to recreate that contrast of something searching for flavor and a sauce that offers nothing but. The textures of the pasta only amplify the dish. These are really great eaten right out of the bowl or made and left to marinate for a few hours or overnight. To that end, they make great leftovers, if you have any. A note about the chicken stock: I love enriching stock with chicken, so make sure you reserve and use the poaching stock from this recipe for a soup, risotto or pan sauce.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 cups chicken stock
4 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt
12 ounces dried vermicelli (or angel hair) pasta
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons grated ginger
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon hot sauce (Tabasco recommended)
6 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat and toast until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Cook the chicken. In a medium skillet, bring the chicken stock to a simmer over medium-high heat. Submerge the chicken breasts in the stock, then reduce the heat to low and poach until the meat is completely cooked through and the internal temperature in the thickest part of the chicken breast registers 165 degrees F on a meat thermometer, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Use a sharp knife to cut the meat into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Set aside. Let the chicken stock cool and reserve for another use.
  • Make the pasta. In a medium pot, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Line a sheet pan with a clean kitchen towel and set aside. Season the water with salt until it tastes like sea water. Plunge the pasta in the water and cook until cooked but still chewy ("al dente"), 4 to 6 minutes. Place a colander in the sink. Reserve a little pasta water, then drain the pasta thoroughly. Shake the colander a few times to remove excess water. Spread the pasta on the towel so it cools more quickly. Gently use a second towel to cover and pat the pasta dry. (Removing the excess moisture assures that the sauce will have a full flavor effect on the noodles.)
  • Make the sauce. In a large bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, vinegar and hot sauce. Adjust the seasonings. Stir in half of the scallions. Set aside.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat evenly. Add some of the reserved water if necessary. Transfer the pasta and sauce to a large serving bowl. Set aside.
  • Arrange the chicken on top of the pasta. Top the pasta with the reserved sesame seeds and remaining scallions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: For this recipe, it's best to use thin noodles, such as ramen or soba. These noodles will cook quickly and absorb the sauce well.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time: The sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add any vegetables you like to this dish. Some good options include broccoli, bell peppers, carrots, and snap peas.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will become mushy and won't hold the sauce as well.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's made. The noodles will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Noodles with sesame sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this recipe a try.
