with noodle stir-fry

Active: 30 min Total: 30 min
A tangy, slightly sweet sauce does double duty here served over fish and tossed into a noodle stir-fry.
Smarts: Any white fish will work in this recipe. The cook times assume thin white fish filets like tilapia, but adjust if using a thicker filet.

  3. Heat a wok over medium heat. Add toasted sesame oil and then bell peppers and carrots to heated oil. Add a pinch of salt and saute until vegetables are tender but still have some crunch. Add noodles and sauce (portion for noodles). Saute for 1 minute more.
