Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 4 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
  • 3 (3-ounce) ramen packets (9 ounces total), seasonings discarded
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil, for noodles
  • 2 tablespoons neutral oil, for cooking ground beef
  • pound lean ground beef
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced or roasted garlic cloves, smashed into a paste
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 jalapeno or serrano pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup Thai or regular basil leaves
  • 2 green onions, sliced at a bias
  • sesame seeds, for garnish
  • chili crisp oil, optional

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, combine chicken broth, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, corn starch, and chili garlic sauce. Set aside until ready to use.
  • Boil noodles for 2 minutes. Rinse with cool water and toss with a drizzle of sesame oil to prevent the noodles from sticking.
  • Heat neutral oil in a large wok or skillet, over medium high heat. Add ground beef and cook until the beef is almost cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the onions and cook until soft and almost translucent, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, shredded carrots and the jalapeno, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 3 minutes, until thickened. Add the ramen and toss until evenly coated.
  • Finish with fresh basil, green onions, sesame seeds, and chili crisp, if desired. Enjoy!
