This isn't your mother's stir-fry. This isn't some fly-by-night with an old packet of soy sauce tossed in for a bit of flavor. This tasty mix of vegetables and noodles is highlighted by ponzu, a tart citrus-y sauce that's balanced with a burst of Sriracha heat and a touch of sugar. The charred green beans and bell pepper add further flavor and texture to a meal that leaves all other stir-fries in the dust.

  1. 1

    Cook the Noodles

    Once water is boiling, add noodles and cook until tender, 4-7 minutes.

    While noodles cook, prepare ingredients.

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Stem, seed, remove ribs, and slice red bell pepper into 1/4" strips.

    Trim ends off green beans. Cut into 2" pieces.

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

    Coarsely chop smoked almonds.

    Char the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over high heat.

    Add 2 tsp. olive oil, red bell pepper, green beans, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper to hot pan and cook until charred and crisp-tender, 2-4 minutes.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Start the Stir-Fry

    Return pan to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil, white portions of green onions, and ginger to hot pan. Cook until aromatic, 30-60 seconds.
