How to Make Orange Chili Noodles

  1. Bring 8 cups of water to a boil in a large stockpot over high heat.
  2. Add 8 ounces of dried noodles (your choice of type) and cook until al dente, about 7-10 minutes.
  3. Drain the noodles thoroughly and transfer them to a large bowl. Set aside.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the following ingredients: 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce (or to taste), 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1/2 teaspoon honey (or maple syrup), and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  5. Pour the dressing over the noodles and toss to coat evenly.
  6. Let the noodles sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Garnish with 2 tablespoons of chopped scallions (optional) before serving. Enjoy!
  8. Serve immediately with your choice of protein (e.g., 4 oz cooked shrimp, 6 oz cooked chicken, or 4 oz firm tofu, all previously cooked and sliced).
