Step-by-Step Instructions for Garlic Oil Schezwan Peanut Noodles
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium heat. Once shimmering, add 3 chopped green onions and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of freshly grated ginger, a handful of chopped cilantro, and 1-2 teaspoons of chili flakes.
- Carefully pour the hot oil with the cooked green onions over the garlic mixture in the bowl. Allow this blend to sit for 3-5 minutes.
- Incorporate 2 tablespoons of tamari or soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of creamy peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of tahini, and 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup into the bowl.
- Cook your brown rice ramen or rice noodles according to package instructions, usually about 4-6 minutes, then drain and rinse under cold water.
- Add the drained noodles to the sauce in the mixing bowl, tossing gently to coat each strand evenly.
- Serve the noodles warm in bowls and garnish with extra chopped green onions, fresh cilantro, and a sprinkle of chopped peanuts.

Notes
Fresh garlic and ginger are recommended for the best flavor. Adjust chili flakes according to spice preference. Garnishes add texture and flavor, so don't skip them.
