Follow The Directions

01

Step
15 mins

Prepare the Noodles: Place rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Let them soak until softened, approximately 15 minutes.

02

Step
2 mins

Make the Lime Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together cider vinegar, lime zest and juice, brown sugar, and chili powder. Set aside.

03

Step
5 mins

Cook the Beef: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, five-spice powder, and salt. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until browned and crumbly, about 5 minutes.

04

Step
2 mins

Add Asparagus and Aromatics: Add asparagus, minced garlic, and minced ginger to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the asparagus is bright green and slightly tender, about 1-2 minutes.

05

Step
3 mins

Combine and Serve: Drain the softened noodles and add them to the skillet with the beef and asparagus mixture. Pour the lime sauce over the noodles and toss to coat everything evenly. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro before serving.

For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with tofu or tempeh.
Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference for spice.
If you don't have fresh cilantro, try using fresh basil or mint for a different flavor profile.
Toast the peanuts lightly in a dry pan for a richer flavor.
