Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef

• 5 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/3 cup brown sugar

• 1/4 cup beef broth

• 1/3 cup soy sauce

• 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce

• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

• Pinch red pepper flakes (optional)

• 10 oz linguine (or preferred pasta)

• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

• 2 tablespoons water

• 4 green onions, sliced

Directions:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of boiling water, cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.

3. Add Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the beef and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, ground ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).

5. Combine Sauce with Beef: Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the browned beef. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

6. Thicken the Sauce: In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add this mixture to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

7. Combine with Noodles: Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, tossing to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce. Let the noodles sit in the sauce for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.

8. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top before serving. Enjoy your delicious Mongolian Ground Beef Noodles!
