Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 8 oz soba noodles and cook for 5-6 minutes until just tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking and prevent sticking.
Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp honey until smooth.
Step 3: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the prepared dressing and immediately toss in 1 large julienned carrot and 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Step 4: Add the drained soba noodles to the skillet along with 3 sliced green onions and toss everything to coat evenly in the dressing. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm through.
Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro on top before serving.
