Salmon and noodles cooked in a homemade teriyaki sauce will be your new easy, tasty and quick weeknight dinner. This recipe is versatile for any kind of noodles and ready within 15 minutes.
First, cook the noodles al dente according to the package directions, drain, and set aside.
To prepare the salmon, in a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, rice viengar, and cornstarch. Add the salmon cubes and toss to coat well. Let marinate for about 5 minutes.
Heat the tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and then add the salmon cubes, reserving the marinade. Sear the salmon cubes on all sides, cooking for for about 30 seconds on each side. Remove the salmon from the skillet to a plate. Save the marinade for the noodles.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil. Sauté bell peppers, green onion and ginger for 2 minutes until the bell pepper softens. Add the noodles and cooking, tossing until the noodles and veggies are well combined. Add the reserved marinade and again toss together until the noodles are well coated with the sauce. Stir fry for 2 minutes until the noodles and sauce are through. Add the salmon back to the skillet and toss to combine and heat through.
Serve hot, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
Noodles: Fresh ramen or lo mein are the best choice here. Udon, soba, and dried spaghetti or linguine all work too. For gluten-free, use medium-width rice noodles.
Salmon: Sear it fast — about 30 seconds per side — and pull it while it's still underdone in the middle. It goes back into the pan at the end and finishes cooking there.
Spice: For a spicier version, stir chili paste into the sauce or serve with chili crisp at the table.
Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days
