I made this last night and it was delicious. I made it in an electic skillet and followed the recipe as written. Dinner was on the table in 20 minutes. And no leftovers
Overall really good, however the hoisin got to be a little too sweet. Will try it again maybe by adding Soy Sauce or Stir fry sauce with the hoisin to tone it down a little.
Thanks to some helpful reviews I was able to make a healthier version of this recipe. I discarded the seasoning packet and used Au Jus to cook the noodles in. I also added some sliced carrots for extra points. Layer by layer this recipe came together in a flash using just one skillet. For the meat I used left over Prime Rib. Super easy and super tasty.Taste Of Home VFE
I was worried that the meat would end up tough and chewy as it has for other stir-fries I've done; however, it turned out quite tender-Yay!! This meal came together like a 30-Minute Meal, which is beneficial since I work a stressful full-time job. Overall, we liked it quite a lot. I thought the hoisin sauce from my store was a bit too sweet. I also added about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper to bring up the spice factor. Made a very attractive presentation on a large platter.
Me and my husband liked it, but the kids thought the sauce on the mixture wasn't good (they are 3 and 7, so they have picky taste buds). I only used on pack of ramen, and that was plenty for us.
quick and easy, will make again
This was an awesome dish hubby and kids loved it will definitely make again...butIt's not hard to understand ladies use 1/2 tsp of one packet then throw away....THEN...use the other packet for the rest of the recipe just read it carefully
My husband really likes this dish. I make it with brocolli and it turns out really good.
I really liked this dish and will definitely make again. I served it with egg rolls.
Whenever I fix Ramen soup, I only use about half of the seasoning packet because it's so full of salt. Try it, it's just fine without the whole packet.
