This is a very delicious recipe but it has A LOT of ingredients. Once I make it, I make it again and again until the more unusual ingredients run out...no one gets bored or complains because it's that good. I found it in the "Pasta" book from the Food and Wine Books. Hope you enjoy it as much as we have. It has a little KICK to it too! 19 ingredients in just a couple of steps...

Time 15m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce, or more to taste
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 (3 ounce) packages ramen noodles
2 tablespoons chopped peanuts
2 medium green onions, thinly sliced diagonally

Steps:

Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, and ginger together in a small bowl. Add peanut butter, whisking until well combined, and set aside.
Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Discard the flavor packet and add ramen noodles to the boiling water. Cook until noodles are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain noodles, reserving some of the noodle water in case you need to thin out the sauce later.
Pour sauce over ramen noodles, tossing until well coated. If sauce is too thick, thin out with a small amount of the reserved noodle water until you reach your desired consistency. Your hot noodles will soak up the sauce. Garnish with peanuts and green onion, and serve.
