Bok Choy, Shiitake, and Garlic Noodles

My son was craving Asian food for dinner so I decided to make this easy bok choy, shiitake, and garlic noodles recipe. These Asian noodles were done in 15 minutes, which is perfect for a busy weeknight, and they work well as a side dish or a main dish. My whole family thought this dish was tasty & paired nicely with some salmon and roasted broccoli.

How to Make Bok Choy, Shiitake, and Garlic Noodles

Cook the noodles in a large pot of salted water per instructions. Drain reserving 2 tablespoons of the cooking water.

While the noodles are cooking, heat the butter in a large sauté pan. Add the shiitake mushrooms and the baby bok choy then cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown.

Add the minced garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, reserved pasta cooking water, and sriracha to the pan and mix well.

Add the drained noodles and toss to coat evenly. Taste, season with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and sesame oil, if needed. Sprinkle the top with toasted sesame seeds. Serve with additional sriracha and soy sauce on the side, if desired. Enjoy.
