Tips for the Best Teriyaki Steak & Shrimp Noodles
🔥 Get Your Pan Hot
A ripping-hot skillet ensures the steak sears beautifully and the shrimp cooks quickly without overcooking.
🥩 Choose the Right Steak
Sirloin or ribeye work best—they stay tender and juicy even with high-heat cooking.
🍤 Don’t Overcook the Shrimp
Shrimp only needs a couple of minutes. Remove them as soon as they turn pink and opaque.
🍜 Use Noodles With Chew
Lo mein and udon soak up sauces well and give that satisfying slurp. Spaghetti works perfectly in a pinch, too.
🧄 Fresh Garlic & Ginger Are Game-Changers
They infuse the entire dish with flavor and make the homemade teriyaki truly stand out.
🥣 Make the Sauce Before the Stir-Fry
Whisking your teriyaki ingredients ahead of time keeps everything smooth and lump-free once it hits the pan.
How to Serve This Dish
Serve these noodles steaming hot, topped with green onions and sesame seeds for a finishing crunch. Add a side of roasted or steamed broccoli, snap peas, bok choy, or a fresh Asian-inspired cucumber salad to balance the richness.
Want it spicy? Add a drizzle of chili oil or sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes.
Need extra sauce? Double the teriyaki ingredients and store the leftovers in the fridge for other meals—it’s amazing on chicken, rice bowls, salmon, and tofu.
