Prep time: Asian
Cook time: Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Bunch Fresh Cilantro
  • 8 Oz. Pkg. Thin Linguine Noodles
  • 3 Tbsp. Peanut Oil, Divided
  • 2-Inch Piece Fresh Ginger, Peeled and Minced
  • 6 - 8 Whole Scallions, Julienne
  • 2 Tbsp. Light Soy Sauce
  • Salt and Pepper, To Taste

Directions

  1. Strip the leaves from the cilantro sprigs. Pile them on a cutting board and chop them roughly, using a very sharp knife.
  2. Cook the noodles al dente in accordance to the package instructions. Rinse under cold water and drain well. Toss them in 1 tablespoon peanut oil.
  3. Heat wok or large skillet until hot, add the remaining peanut oil and swirl it around. Add the ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds, then add the noodles and scallions. Stir-fry 3 - 4 minutes, until hot.
  4. Sprinkle with the soy sauce, cilantro and seasoning. Toss well, then serve immediately.
  5. Cook's Tip: You want to cook the noodles al dente because when you go to saute them they will continue to cook. If overcooked before hand they will become sticky and mushy.
