Rachael Ray's Yakitori Noodle Bowls- Remixed

Submitted by Pamplemoussee

"This isn't exactly her recipe, but I have to give her credit. I saw her make this on her show the other day, and it just looked so tasty However I didn't have all the ingredients on hand, so I improvised. If you want to try her recipe go to http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/yakitori-noodle-bowls/ and follow the recipe. Here's my version. I've reduced the amount of scallions and added carrots for extra veggies. I also skipped on the sherry and went with stock because I didn't have any sherry. Also didn't have tamari, but soy sauce is the closest equivilent."

Made this for our lunch and it was delicious! I added a little garlic, a few fresh pea pods (which I had left) and some waterchestnuts. DH totally enjoyed it. Thank you for an easy and delicious dish! Made for Zaar Cookbook Tag.

Yummy!!! I think this is a fantastic recipe. The flavors are wonderful together (I didn't use salt since I think the soy sauce and terriaki are salty enough) and the recipe could be very adaptable to adding whatever veggies you would like. I particularly liked the shredded carrot addition! I agree with other reviewers about the amount of pasta. I used half the amount and thought it was perfect. Thank you! Made for cookbook tag.

Nice! I halved the noodles, doubled the sauce and added garlic, like other reviewers as well.

Loved the taste! I added garlic, but otherwise followed the recipe......except, I cooked all the noodles, and then added what I felt matched the amount of chicken and sauce. I had a lot of noodles leftover. So I'd half or quarter the amount of noodles you cook. Really enjoyed this easy lunch. Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Spring 2011.

I thought this dish was excellent! I had to double the sauce though because it really didn't look like there was enough to cover all the noodles. Only other change I made was to use a regular onion instead of scallions because I didn't realize I had run out. I also added some chopped water chestnuts because I already had them leftover from another recipe and thought they would be a good addition to this dish. YUMMY, Thanks Pamplemoussee!!!
