Things I’ve made one of the most horror recipes I’ve made in a while. So so salty and that’s all you could taste never ever.
Mark Diaz
Delicious! First time making Yakisoba. I added honey and ginger with the soy sauce. I also marinated the chicken with a 1/2 tsp of sesame oil, 1 tbp of olive oil (you can also use canola ), eyeballed the following seasonings: garlic powder, onion salt, ginger, red pepper flakes, & black pepper. Chicken tasted delicious!!! 🙂
Jeffrey Riggs
It was ok
Michael Rodriguez
Added honey to the chili paste and ginger to the chicken and it was delicious.

This has easily turned out to be one of our family favorites. 4 stars only because it’s so spicy (for someone who doesn’t care too much for spicy foods). Next time I will only put a TBLS or less of chili paste.
James Ingram
What a wonderful dish! I wanted something different today, and this fit the bill. It has a nice bite to it!! The only thing I did differently was I used a box of Japanese Ramen Noodles for the noodles. I also cooked everything double the time stated..I like my cabbage and carrots cooked til soft, that’s just me.

My kids love this dish! I changed it up some. I substitute chicken with ground beef. I use chopped green onions, a teaspoon of saracha chili garlic sauce and a teaspoon of ginger. I also use the green giant tricolor slaw mix for my veggies. It is a great 30 minute meal that usually you have most of the ingredients in the fridge and pantry.
Noah Wright
This was absolutely delicious and relatively easy to make. I used wheat soba noodles because that was all I could find at the time. Think they cook a little faster than the others. So yummy!
Matthew Wheeler
This was one of the tastiest things I’ve ever made! I wonder how it would turn out if I cooked the carrots and onions with the garlic, before adding the chicken. Next time I’ll try adding some mushrooms in there too. I couldn’t find Yakisoba noodles at Walmart, so I went out of my comfort zone of where I routinely shop and stopped by a local Asian market and picked up something called “Vegetarian Noodles.” They were so good!! Also, I’m not a big hot sauce lover but I threw in a couple drops to the final product and I really liked it!

I made it last night, and with no prior experience making it, I made something the whole family came back to get seconds of. I accidentally used twice the amount of noodles the recipes called for, so we had two courses – noodles and the rest of the dish. I used whole-wheat spaghetti and polish sausage as substitution. Cooking it was fun, though.
Kathy Everett
made it according to the recipe and all three of us enjoyed it. We will definitely have it again.

Good shtuff. Would add a photo but I don’t have a good camera. Alterations: For the chili paste I had to improvise. Homemade Chili Paste Substitute: – 1 cup Ketchup – 2 tsp Crushed Red Pepper – Combined both in side container
Kimberly Turner
Easy and delicious!

I made this for the first time tonight and it was delicious! I am sure I’ve never had authentic Yakisoba, but all I can say is that this was tasty. I added a chopped red bell pepper and a few chopped mushrooms to the veggies and actually broke out the wok to cook it! My husband and I like things pretty spicy, and topped off our servings with a couple squirts of sriracha, a dash more soy sauce and a couple drops of sesame oil. I will definitely be making this again!
James Hill
Oh my. This was so good! Hubby could not quit raving about this dish. Perfect amount of hot. Excellent.
Victoria Salazar
Pretty good and straightforward to make. But it’s a little salty. I’d cut back on the soy sauce a bit.
Kevin Smith
I liked it. Overall, it has some pretty good flavor. It’s a pretty easy recipe to make. I tried it with shrimp. I would make it again.
Alexa Pruitt
Fabulous recipe! Will make this again and again
Tiffany Wong
Very amazing recipe.
Matthew Koch
Made this straight by the recipe except that I didn’t use any chicken. It was a vegetable yakisoba and it was delicious. We’ll definitely be using this again.
Johnathan Bradford
cooked exactly as directed. Loved it!
