15 Minute Sesame Ramen

 

1 package ramen noodles flavor packet discarded

1 T. coconut oil

2 garlic cloves minced

½ tsp. freshly grated ginger

1 T. brown sugar

2 T. low sodium soy sauce

1 T. rice vinegar

1 tsp. chili garlic paste

2 T. toasted sesame oil

2 green onions thinly sliced

toasted sesame seeds for sprinkling

 

Cook the ramen noodles according to the directions on the package. This only takes 2 to 3 minutes! I like to get all of my other ingredients out while waiting for the water to boil. While the noodles are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the coconut oil and once melted, stir in the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute, then stir in the sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and chili garlic paste. Turn off the heat and stir in the toasted sesame oil. Add the noodles to the skillet and toss well to coat. Serve the noodles with lots of green onions and sesame seeds on top.
