Mongolian noodles were one of my favorite meals when I was a kid. I loved going to the Mongolian restaurant and watching them cook it right in front of you. So you can imagine how excited I was when I was looking for a last-minute meal idea and saw this recipe for Mongolian beef made with ingredients I already had in my kitchen!

When I first prepared it, I didn’t have any rice noodles in the pantry, but I did have regular pasta, so I thought I’d give that a shot. You could easily substitute rice noodles for them for a more authentic Mongolian noodle dish, but I decided to leave it in the recipe because it was so delicious.

This recipe for Mongolian noodles uses ground beef and simple ingredients, so there’s no need to order takeout. The best part is that it only takes 15 minutes to prepare.

If you notice, there’s no salt in the beef and sauce mixture. Hoisin sauce tends to be salty and I haven’t found a low-sodium version of it yet. That’s also the reason I recommend using low-sodium soy sauce for this recipe.

You can prepare this quick and simple ground beef mongolian noodle dish in 30 minutes or less, and it tastes even better than the restaurant version.

Pasta is my favorite food group, and recently I’ve been enjoying Asian flavors, so I wanted to make a quick beef noodle recipe. This recipe is so easy to prepare that it has established itself as a regular on our weeknight menu.

I modeled my recipe after PF Chang’s Mongolian Beef with a sweet soy glaze, garlic, and green onions. However, instead of flank steak, I used lean ground beef. This is the perfect dish to satisfy all your quick fix Asian/Chinese food cravings and it’ll make your house smell amazing while cooking!
