Chicken Yakisoba

Make this popular Japanese street food at home in under 30 minutes!

So I had to look up what exactly yakisoba was and found out it translates to grilled noodles and is a really popular street food in Japan. Yakisoba can use either soba noodles or ramen noodles. This recipe features ramen, which if you've been around for a while, you may notice has been getting loads of love lately. I kind of blame it on the garlic butter ramen we had recently. I crave ramen all the time now! I definitely prefer jazzing up a packet of ramen noodles instead of just making it per instructions. This is a fabulous stir fry with lots of veggies and lots of flavor. You can adjust the sriracha to give more of a kick if you prefer or a little more sugar if you prefer it a little sweeter. I highly recommend this quick meal if you're craving a little Asian cuisine!
