Once my boys tasted Japanese Teriyaki Noodles, they forgot about their favorite boxed after school snack of Mac and Cheese and this became a family favorite. It’s commonly served with sautéed veggies or in a noodle bowl with chicken or steak.
My boys prefer just a bowl of Teriyaki Noodles with Sesame Seeds on top
Teriyaki Noodles are tangy, sweet, and delicious. Use a bottled Teriyaki Sauce or follow my delicious Teriyaki Sauce recipe, it's a keeper recipe by the way so make sure to Pin it for later.
How to make Teriyaki Noodles
In the time it takes to make a box of Mac and Cheese, you can make this fresh Teriyaki Noodle.
- Follow the directions on your noodle package and rinse and drain the noodles when they are cooked.
- In a frying pan over medium/high heat, heat up 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil.

- When the oil is hot add the noodles and stir. You will hear the sizzle. Isn’t it wonderful? Add the teriyaki sauce and stir to coat all the noodles.
- You can always add more or less depending on how sweet of a flavor you want.
- Sometimes I even add some sliced onions and slivered carrots at this point but it’s truly optional to what you prefer.
- Let this cook for 2-4 minutes. The Teriyaki Sauce will bubble and caramelize a bit. Sprinkle ginger on top and get ready to serve. It’s just that simple.
- Garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, and carrot slivers.

- Serve Teriyaki Noodles as a side dish or in a meal.
- Add chicken, pork or steak and of course vegetables to this wonderful flavorful dish. You can’t go wrong.
Make a Noodle Bowl with your favorite fresh ingredients. You will feel like you went out to eat with the luxury of staying in.
