Sauce and Seasoning

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 teaspoons garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon ginger (minced)

Instructions

1. Cook noodles: Prepare the noodles by cooking them according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain thoroughly and set aside to prevent overcooking.
2. Sauté aromatics: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan, sautéing them for 1 to 2 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly golden, which builds the dish’s base flavor.
3. Toss noodles: Add the cooked noodles directly into the skillet with the aromatics. Pour in the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and brown sugar. Toss everything together carefully to ensure the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Garnish and serve: Remove the skillet from heat, then drizzle the noodles with sesame oil for a toasty finish. Optionally sprinkle chopped scallions and sesame seeds over the top for extra flavor and texture. Serve the hibachi noodles immediately to enjoy their best texture and taste.

Notes

• You can use linguine, yakisoba, or any thin wheat noodles available.
• Adjust soy sauce and teriyaki sauce amounts according to your salt preference.
• For a protein boost, add cooked shrimp, chicken, or tofu when tossing the noodles.
• Sesame seeds and scallions add authenticity but can be omitted if unavailable.
• Be careful not to overcook the noodles to keep a pleasant chewy texture.
