Ramen Noodle Stir Fry - 52 Ramen Noodle Upgrades

Pin It Now!

A classic stir fry... Made fast (once all the ingredients are trimmed, diced and the noodle broken up, this really is a ten minute recipe.  really, start to finish, on your plate in about 15 total minutes, including prep time.

But of course, the dish must be tasty and this sure is.  LOTS of Asian flavors, LOTS of veggie goodness and filling from the Ramen Noodles.  And of course, partly made easy with one of those store bought, pre cooked, pre seasoned Rotisserie Chickens!

Only tips are to not over cook.  Snap peas are always best when they have a bite and bit of crispness to them.  The same is true for the Ramen Noodles.  Cook them as directed for about half the time suggested on the package.  This recipe does not use the flavor package enclosed with the noodles.  Better they are flavored with the Asian Hoisin and Sriracha Sauces.  The noodles will finish cooking when they are added to the stir fry.

OK... You will love this dish... FAST EASY And DELICIOUS!

This recipe has been added to my growing list of "52 Uses For a Rotisserie Chicken"  (Now close to 100!)...I am so confused... $5.49 for a fully cooked, fully seasoned Oven Roasted, Rotisserie Chicken. Yet shop in the raw meat department and most raw chickens are at best $8 each and usually far closer to $10. Anyone have an answer??? Me either. So, I can either rail against the machine, or learn to embrace the beauty that is the $5 chicken! In this pin are recipes I have made, and recommend. MORE than 52 (I just can't stop)..
You get the idea.  From Scratch Pizza to Chinese Take Out recipes, Lots of Soups and Chili... Appetizers to Main Courses (Still can't find a dessert, but I am looking).  More than enough ideas for that store nought bird to shine with just a little extra work
