How to Make Asian Noodles And Pork Pasta Salad

Cook 1 pound pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain, rinse with cool water to cool, and drain again.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 3 tablespoons sugar, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, and the seasoning packet from 1 (1 ounce) package of Asian-style soup mix. Set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over high heat until hot.
Add 1 pound pork (or chicken) thinly sliced and stir-fry for 6-7 minutes, or until browned. Remove meat from skillet and set aside.
Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and 1 head broccoli, cut into florets, to the skillet. Stir-fry until tender-crisp (about 5-7 minutes), adding more oil if needed.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, pork (or chicken), broccoli, mushrooms, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the salad and toss gently to coat.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld (can be made ahead of time).
Just before serving, break 3 ounces ramen noodles into bite-sized pieces.
Add the ramen noodles and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds to the salad and toss gently.
Sprinkle with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
