Ingredients Of Beef Teriyaki Noodles
- 1 (8 ounce) package vermicelli noodles
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 2 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large bell pepper, diced
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic

Try some of these swaps for different variations
- Replace the steak with strips of chicken instead – you’ll need to cook the chicken for a few minutes longer to ensure it’s fully cooked through and no longer pink in the middle.
- Use ready-cooked egg noodles instead of dried (use 400g (14oz) to serve four people. These can usually be found in the stir fry vegetable section of the supermarket.
- Add different vegetables – strips of white cabbage, small florets of broccoli, mange tout, sugar snap peas (snow peas), baby corn and bean sprouts (mung bean sprouts) are all great additions.
How to Make Beef Teriyaki Noodles Recipe?
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in noodles and return to a boil. Cook noodles uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add zucchini, onion, and bell pepper. Season lightly with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are lightly caramelized and tender, about 8 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer vegetables into a bowl and set aside.
- Heat remaining oil in the skillet until hot. Add steak strips and sear until nicely browned on each side and steak is cooked to medium. Season steak lightly with salt and pepper while it cooks.
- Meanwhile, to make the teriyaki sauce: combine soy sauce, water, brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch, and ginger in a bowl. Whisk until sauce is well blended.
- Add vegetables back into the skillet once steak is cooked and pour teriyaki sauce over everything. Bring mixture to a simmer, and cook until the sauce thickens up, about 2 minutes. Add cooked noodles and gently stir to evenly coat noodles with the sauce. Taste, and adjust the seasonings if desired.

Notes
A tasty noodle stir fry is one of my favourite ways of getting that ‘takeaway fix’.
I often make a double batch of the sauce and keep it in the fridge so I can whip up this teriyaki beef stir fry with noodles in no time. The recipe calls for marinating the steak – which makes the steak more tender, and adds more flavour. However, if you’re using a nice cut of steak, that’s already pretty tender (such as sirloin or ribeye), then you can skip the marinating time and get it on the table extra quickly.
