ASIAN SNACK MIX



Asian Snack Mix image

A different spin on Chex mix which we love. Wasabi is the Japanese version of horseradish and has a sharp, pungent, fiery flavor. Wasabi-coated peas add a fiery sweet flavor to the snack mix. If you choose not to use them in this recipe, substitute 1 cup sesame sticks. You can choose if you want to cook in the microwave or oven. From the Betty Crocker website.

SPICY ASIAN RAMEN NOODLES



Spicy Asian Ramen Noodles image

I admit it, I still love ramen. In this yummy recipe, expect fast, easy, and spicy with salty, sweet, and sour flavors kicking in. The spiciness level can be adapted to your taste by adjusting the chili garlic sauce. This will make 4 side servings or 3 hearty main course servings.

Provided by lutzflcat

Time 15m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 10

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.

SPICY SNACK MIX



Spicy Snack Mix image

I've worked on the tiny details of this simple spicy snack mix recipe for years and years. My friends ask me to bring a batch every time I come over.

Provided by Veronica

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Snacks     Party Mix Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt (such as Lawry's®)
1 teaspoon onion powder
4 cups crispy rice cereal
4 cups crispy corn cereal squares
2 cups crispy wheat cereal squares
2 cups small twist pretzels
1 ½ teaspoons white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Place butter in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Microwave on high, checking at 15-second intervals, until melted, about 1 minute. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, chile-garlic sauce, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and onion powder until well mixed.
  • Combine rice, corn, and wheat cereals in a large bowl. Transfer 2 to 3 cups cereal mixture to a separate bowl and pour about 1 ounce of butter mixture over top; mix with your hands until completely coated. Transfer cereal to a metal baking sheet, spreading into an even layer. Continue coating small amounts of cereal mixture with butter mixture and layering evenly on the baking sheet, using another sheet if needed; if too much is on the sheet, it doesn't get crispy.
  • Coat pretzels with the remaining butter mixture and add to the baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Stir cereal mixture and redistribute in an even layer. Return to the oven and continue to cook, stirring and redistributing every 15 minutes, until crispy and golden, another 30 to 45 minutes. Sprinkle sugar lightly over cereal mixture during the last 15 minutes; do not add it too early or it will burn.
