I can't stop eating this delicious Yakisoba. I used chicken I had prepped (I cooked chicken in garlic and ginger) for another dish and the sauce was just not turning out so I found this recipe. What a great find! I used pre-shredded cabbage and carrots I bought at the 99 Cents Only store. I used green onions for the onions. My BF will be asking for this amazing Yakisoba again and soon! I absolutely recommend this recipe. (I went to the Chinese market and got fresh Yakisoba noodles as I am fortunate to leave close to a wonderful market).

    great recipe SueL! I used dried soba (buckwheat noodles) and it had a wonderful flavor. I think it would be wonderful with udon too. I used only 2 tsp of sugar, and it's perfect for BF and I. I think I added more than 1 TB of ginger as I love ginger. I also added a few cloves of minced garlic. Yummy! Thanks for the recipe.

    Very nice recipe! I really enjoyed the flavor and theease of making this. Made a great lunch. I made 2 slight changes, reduced the amount of sugar a little and added shitake mushrooms. Have to recommend! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
