Mongolian Stir Fry

Going on cruises, my brother and I would always go to the Mongolian bar. It was our favorite food bar on the ship. I cam across this recipe and added a few ingredients to bring out the flavor and man...it feels like I am back on that ship again! This dish has a nice spicy flavor, but it can always be omitted. Enjoy with your favorite protein and different veggies.


Ingredients
8 oz spaghetti noodles, cooked al dente
1 Tbsp olive oil
8 oz protein (chicken, steak, shrimp)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 onion, diced
2 C broccoli florets
1/2 C shredded carrots
1/2 C diced mushrooms
1/4 C brown sugar
1/4 C reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 Tbsp hoisen sauce
2 tsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp ground or minced ginger
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp pepper


Add the oil to a skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add your protein (**if you are using shrimp, see below). Cook meat until no longer pink. 
Add the garlic, onion, carrots, broccoli and mushrooms. Lower heat to medium and continue cooking until broccoli has softened.
In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, hoisen sauce, sesame oil, ginger, pepper flakes and pepper.
Add your cooked spaghetti to the skillet and pour sauce into pan. Toss to combine and top with optional sesame seeds.

**If using shrimp, add them to the skillet with your vegetables and continue cooking until slightly pink.
