Ramen lovers, this is your new go-to noodle bowl. Gluten-free rice noodles are tender with a little give and super easy to prepare. Jalapeño and fresh ginger combine to a little kick of spice to the broth and soy sauce. Beef round cooks quickly adding richness to the dish and frozen peas add a pop of color. Throw this one together for a new twist on a busy weeknight dinner or make it a fun night with friends. Eight servings in under 30 minutes makes entertaining with this recipe easy on the host. Serve with a small green salad to complete the meal.

Jalapeño pepper

Instructions

  1. Using sharp scissors, cut noodles into 3-inch (7.5 cm) pieces.

  3. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover and simmer 10 minutes (if necessary, skim fat from the surface during cooking).

Notes

Keep it gluten-free and look for gluten-free soy sauce in your local supermarket.
