Quick & Irresistible Korean Beef Sesame Noodles | Ready in Just 20 Minutes!

Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside, keeping a little water aside to help loosen the noodles later if needed.
Step 2: Prepare the Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, Gochujang, sesame oil, garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
Step 3: Cook the Ground Beef
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
Once cooked, remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4: Stir-Fry the Vegetables
In the same skillet, add the shallot, bell pepper, zucchini, and shredded carrots. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften but still maintain their crispness.
Step 5: Combine
Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables and pour in the sauce. Stir everything together to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet, tossing gently to combine. If the noodles seem too dry, add a little reserved noodle water to loosen them.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Serve the Korean beef sesame noodles in bowls, garnished with fresh basil, green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Enjoy your quick, flavorful, and satisfying dish!
