Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 4 tsp fresh grated ginger
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes optional
- 8 oz linguine or fettuccine noodles
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 4 green onions sliced
Instructions
- In a skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat until browned, 5 minutes. Add ginger and garlic during last 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Drain excess fat from beef. Add brown sugar, broth, soy sauce, hoisin, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir well.
- In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Pour into beef mixture and bring to a simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes.
- Add cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to coat evenly in the sauce. Allow to sit for 2-3 minutes so noodles absorb flavor.
- Serve garnished with sliced green onions.
