Ingredients

Scale

Noodle and Pork Mixture

  • 8 ounces package of wide LoMein noodles, cooked and rinsed according to package instructions
  • 1 tablespoon peanut oil or vegetable oil (if allergy concerns)
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • ¼ cup sliced green onions (divided; ¼ cup cooked with pork, 2 tablespoons for garnish)
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons Mirin sweet cooking rice wine
  • 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons grated ginger
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon sriracha hot sauce (optional, adjust to taste)

Vegetables

  • 4 cups bagged coleslaw mix (shredded green cabbage, shredded red cabbage, shredded carrots)

Instructions

  1. Cook noodles: Prepare the wide LoMein noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process and set aside.
  2. Sauté aromatics and pork: Heat the peanut or vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and ¼ cup sliced green onions and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add the ground pork and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked through, approximately 6-8 minutes.
  3. Add liquids and seasonings: Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth, mirin, dark soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the liquid to reduce slightly. Add sriracha hot sauce if using and adjust to your desired spice level.
  4. Combine noodles and vegetables: Toss the cooked and rinsed LoMein noodles and bagged coleslaw mix into the pork mixture. Stir well to evenly coat the noodles and wilt the coleslaw slightly without overcooking, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Garnish and serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with the reserved 2 tablespoons of sliced green onions as garnish. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use peanut oil for its high smoke point and mild flavor, but substitute vegetable oil if there are peanut allergies.
  • Mirin adds a subtle sweetness to balance the savory elements; if unavailable, a mixture of dry white wine and a pinch of sugar can be used.
  • Dark soy sauce provides deeper color and flavor than regular soy sauce.
  • Sriracha is optional and can be omitted or replaced with another hot sauce according to your spice preference.
  • Coleslaw mix ensures a quick and easy way to add fresh crunch and color without extra chopping.
