Ingredients
Scale
Noodles and Pork
- 8 oz wide Lo Mein noodles, cooked and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions (for garnish)
Sauce
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons mirin
- 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sriracha
Vegetables
- 4 cups coleslaw mix
Instructions
- Cook the noodles: Boil the wide Lo Mein noodles according to package instructions until tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Brown the pork: Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and 1/4 cup sliced green onions, cooking until the pork is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Break the pork into crumbles as it cooks.
- Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, mirin, dark soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and sriracha until well combined.
- Combine ingredients in skillet: Add the cooked noodles, coleslaw mix, and the prepared sauce into the skillet with the browned pork. Toss everything together and cook for 2–3 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly and everything is evenly coated with the sauce.
- Serve and garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sliced green onions. Serve warm.
Notes
- Mirin substitution: Use rice vinegar plus 1 teaspoon of sugar if mirin is unavailable.
- Soy sauce tip: Dark soy sauce adds rich color and depth of flavor; regular soy sauce can be used as a substitute but with milder taste.
- Heat adjustment: Increase the amount of sriracha or add chili crisp to boost spiciness according to preference.
