How to Make Garlic Chili Oil Noodles
  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add your chosen noodles and cook according to the package instructions (5-7 minutes) until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  2. In a heatproof bowl, mix together the minced garlic, chili oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and salt. Stir until well combined.
  3. In a small saucepan, gently heat the chili oil over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes, until it shimmers without smoking. Pour this fragrant oil over the garlic mixture.
  4. Add the warm, drained noodles to the bowl with the garlic oil mixture. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes until the noodles are coated.
  5. Plate the Garlic Chili Oil Noodles and top with chopped scallions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
