I too added a little fresh ginger to the marinade. The flavors in this dish were very interesting. We loved them! A little salt, sweentess and savory flavors made for a really delicious dinner for us! Made as listed, this one is terrific! We opted to use the Asian rice noodles for this one. Delicious! Oops... Almost forgot... I marinated for about 6 hours and they were REALLY tasty!

This recipe was both very quick to make (after marinating) and very tasty. I made the pasta and marinade on Sunday when I had time, and finished cooking and assembly on Monday night. I added approximatley 1 tsp. of grated ginger to the marinade for a little kick. We had enough for leftovers on Tuesday night and my lunch on Wednesday! I may scale this down, but I'll be making it again. Thanks for posting!

Nice recipe, DH wanted something Thai, his favorit type of food; and I had pulled out pork chops so found this and had the udon noodles. It was so easy with nice flavors and went together so fast. I did have to cook longer than listed but that's because I had thick chops. At the end, I poured in the marinade that was left over and made a gravy to pour over the meat and it was very nice.

I made the pork chop part of this recipe to go with Charmie's My Thai Sesame Noodles (#413122). I grated some fresh ginger into the marinade using a microplane and marinated the pork chops for about 5 hours. Since there is tons of snow on the BBQ, I pan seared the pork chops and then finished baking them in the oven. My husband loved the flavor and caramelization. Thanks Marie!
