Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 8 ounces udon noodles
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 3 green onions, chopped

Sauce Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated

Optional Garnish

  • Sesame seeds


Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles: Prepare the udon noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain them well and set aside to keep warm.
  2. Heat the oil: In a large skillet or wok, warm the vegetable oil over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the proteins and vegetables.
  3. Cook the steak: Add the thinly sliced flank steak to the hot skillet and sear it for 2-3 minutes until it browns nicely. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.
  4. Cook the shrimp: In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove them and set aside with the steak.
  5. Sauté the vegetables: Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp, maintaining a slight crunch.
  6. Add aromatics: Stir in the chopped green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and well combined with the vegetables.
  7. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, and honey until smooth.
  8. Combine proteins and sauce: Return the cooked steak and shrimp to the skillet, pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over everything, and stir thoroughly to coat all ingredients.
  9. Add noodles: Incorporate the cooked udon noodles into the skillet and toss all components together until the noodles are well coated and heated through.
  10. Serve: Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute flank steak with sirloin or ribeye for a different texture.
  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a splash of sriracha to the sauce.
  • If you prefer, use gluten-free soy sauce to make this recipe gluten-free.
  • Use fresh udon noodles for a softer texture, or dried noodles for convenience.
  • Sesame seeds add a nice crunch and nuttiness but can be omitted for allergies.
