I was going through my grocery the other day and was happily surprised to find in the Asian foods section a type of noodle called shirataki. I was very happy with they because my father is on a low carb diet and is missing pasta terribly, and these long white noodles only had 1.5 carbs in 1 serving. So, I bought two water patched bags of noodles, some hoisin, and sesame oil, and just let my mind go. Here is what I came up with.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs pork chops, sliced into thin strips
1 inch fresh ginger, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into strips
1/2 medium onion, sliced into strips
2 (7 ounce) bags shirataki noodles
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, place the first 8 ingredients, and toss them to combined.
2. Let it marinade for 4-5 hours, or over night, tossing every few hours.
3. Heat a little more sesame oil in a large wok or skillet.
4. Take the pork out of the marinade, shake off excess marinade, and stir fry in the wok or skillet; season with salt and pepper.
5. Add the corn starch to the marinade and whisk to dissolve.
6. Add the peppers and onions when the pork is fully cooked and stir fry for about 2 minutes.
7. Add the noodles and marinade, and bring to a boil to thicken sauce.
