A note about serious food allergies

A famous comedian once referred to a meal as a “sadness bowl.” Well, we hate to steal another's material, but this meal could easily be called a bowl of joy. Ground pork and green beans are mixed with lo mein noodles and tossed in a sauce built from teriyaki and gochujang. Topped with the unique flavor of cilantro and heat of a Fresno chile, this dish of glee will bring you grins and cheers, no comedy set required. Tip: Line 'em up! The best way to remove the ends of green beans is to line them up evenly, then remove them with one cut.

  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |

Customize It Instructions

  • If using 20 oz. ground pork, follow same instructions as 10 oz. ground pork, working in batches if necessary.

  • If using ground turkey, follow same instructions as pork in Step 3, breaking up turkey until no pink remains and turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 7-9 minutes.

  1. 1

    Cook the Noodles

    Once water is boiling, add noodles and cook until tender, 4-5 minutes.

    Drain noodles in a colander. Rinse with cold water and return to pot. Stir in sesame oil and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim ends off green beans. Cut on an angle into 2" pieces.

    Stem and coarsely chop cilantro.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Slice red Fresno chile into thin rounds. Discard seeds if you prefer less spice. Wash hands and cutting board after working with Fresno chile.

    Combine 1/2 cup water, teriyaki glaze, and half the gochujang in a mixing bowl. Taste, and add more gochujang, if desired. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Pork and Green Beans

    Place a large non-stick pan over high heat. Add 2 tsp. olive oil, ground pork, green beans, white portions of green onions, and a pinch of salt to very hot pan.

    Stir occasionally, breaking up meat, until green beans begin to char, no pink remains on pork, and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 7-9 minutes.

    Transfer pork and green beans to a plate. Keep pan over high heat.

  4. 4

    Char the Noodles

    Add noodles to hot pan and cook undisturbed until slightly charred on one side, 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Stir pork and green beans and teriyaki-gochujang mixture into hot pan until combined.

    Remove from burner.
