Directions
- 1Cook noodles in salted boiling water until al dente, 9 to 10 minutes.

- 5Add oil and ground beef.
- 6Cook 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it up, until browned.
- 7Drain extra grease if needed.
- 8Add garlic, ginger, and most of the green onions.
- 9Cook about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 10Stir the sauce, then pour it into the skillet.
- 11Bring to a simmer 2 to 3 minutes until it thickens and coats the beef.
- 12Add cooked noodles and toss with tongs until everything is coated and glossy.
- 13If it seems too thick, add a splash of pasta water.
