Ingredients You’ll Need

Stir fry noodles – you can use Chinese egg noodles if you can find them, or use ramen noodles, udon noodles, or Thai wheat noodles for a great substitute. 

Fresh Shiitake Mushrooms – a hearty and tasty mushroom, which has a great flavor and texture in this easy recipe! Pan-fry the mushrooms until brown and enjoy.

Butter – I used unsalted butter so I could control the amount of saltiness in this dish.

Fresh garlic – I use fresh minced garlic which gives these noodles the best flavor! If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can use minced jarred garlic

Honey for a little natural sweetness.

Soy Sauce or use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten free version.

Stir Fry Sauce is a great base for this stir fry recipe. You can make a tasty homemade sauce, or use a store-bought bottled sauce for an easier option.

Parmesan cheese – while this may seem like an unusual ingredient in a stir fry 

Chopped chives for garnish and flavor! If you can’t find chives, try using sliced green onions.

Black Pepper – which adds a wonderful hint of spice and texture for these noodles.

Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!

Additions and Substitutions

In addition to the butter, you can add a teaspoon of toasted sesame oil for extra flavor.

I used a store bought stir-fry sauce, but you could add in some oyster sauce, fish sauce, or hoisin sauce. 

If you don’t have honey, you can use brown sugar, maple syrup, or agave nectar.
