Potsticker Noodle Bowl (Printable Version)

Tender lo mein noodles and savory ground pork tossed with crunchy vegetables in an aromatic Asian-inspired sauce.

# Ingredients:

→ Base

01 - 8 ounces wide LoMein Noodles

02 - 1 tablespoon peanut oil (or vegetable oil for allergy concerns)

03 - 1 pound ground pork

→ Aromatics & Seasonings

04 - ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons sliced green onions, divided

05 - 1 tablespoon minced garlic

06 - 2 teaspoons grated ginger

→ Sauce

07 - ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth

08 - 3 tablespoons Mirin (sweet cooking rice wine)

09 - 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce

10 - 1 teaspoon sesame oil

11 - ½ teaspoon sriracha hot sauce (optional)

→ Vegetables

12 - 4 cups bagged coleslaw mix (shredded green cabbage, red cabbage and carrots)

# Steps:

01 - Boil, drain, and rinse the LoMein noodles according to package directions. Set aside. You can prepare the rest of the recipe while the noodles are cooking.

02 - Heat peanut oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ground pork and ¼ cup sliced green onions. Cook until pork is completely browned and no pink remains, about 5-6 minutes.

03 - While the pork cooks, combine low-sodium chicken broth, mirin, dark soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and sriracha (if using) in a small mixing bowl. Whisk thoroughly and set aside.

04 - Once the pork is fully cooked, add the cooked LoMein noodles, coleslaw mix, and sauce mixture to the skillet.

05 - Using tongs, gently toss all ingredients together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the liquid has reduced and all noodles and pork are fully coated with sauce. Transfer to a large serving bowl and garnish with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sliced green onions.

# Notes:

01 - Mirin is a sweet Japanese rice wine essential for authentic flavor, but you can substitute with 3 tablespoons rice vinegar mixed with 1 tablespoon sugar if unavailable.

02 - Dark soy sauce is thicker and sweeter than regular soy sauce - if unavailable, use regular soy sauce with 1/2 teaspoon of molasses or brown sugar.
