Can I use rice noodles?
I am giving this 5 stars because this dish is Fun! It’s fast! It’s EXCITING! It’s Super flavorful! And WOW it is **VERY** spicy!!! So we will definitely re-make but will cut the chili flakes by half. I added probably 1/2 C of the pasta water, some extra soy sauce and another Tbsp of honey to dilute the spice enough to eat as written. But it is Delightful! Served with grilled chicken thighs seasoned simply with garlic salt and pepper & a cold iceberg salad.
My daughter and I liked it so much I made it three days in a row. It was fast and easy and yummy.
This was very tasty and super fast. We crushed up cashews and served it over the top; we really liked this addition. The crunchy sweet salt of the cashews really added to the dish.
I love this recipe! I used butternut squash noodles (frozen swirls) and half Angel hair! It’s so good and I cooked the squash only half the time it called for so it stayed nice and firm but tender. Many meals out of this!
I made this today. I did use more soy sauce, honey and sriracha. I felt with the amount of oil it needed it. I also used oil I had, extra virgin olive oil which was a little heavy. I think the avocado oil would be better or use less oil if using olive oil. I love the sizzle of the oil and the spices. I also had leftover pork tenderloin so sliced it up and added it. It is delicious! Thanks!
I just saw Ree make this on her Pioneer Woman show and she added tomato paste from a tube. It seems to be left out of this recipe.
Loved these noodles. Spicy, but not unpleasantly so. I added cilantro on top fir freshness. (Chopped it with scissors!). Yum!
This was amazing. Me and my husband loved it. I did substitute cheese tortellini for the cheese Ravioli only because I figured it would be easier to eat with a soup spoon. Delicious
