Ingredients

  • 12 ounces (340 grams) sirloin or ribeye steak cut to 3/4 inch (2 centimeter) dice
  • 1/2 tablespoon (6 grams) kosher salt
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons (38 milliliters) ponzu sauce
  • 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) vegetable oil
  • 2 (4.2 ounce, 127 gram) packages Chapagetti
  • 2 (4.2 ounce, 127 gram) packages Neoguri
  • 2 scallions thinly sliced, for garnish
  • Sesame chili oil or regular sesame oil to taste, for garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the steak, salt and ponzu sauce. Cover the bowl and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and warm the vegetable oil.
  • When the oil is hot, add the steak (discarding the marinade) in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
  • Flip the steak and continue cooking until medium, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cover and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add all four packages of instant noodles (setting aside all of the seasoning packets for now) and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
  • Scoop out and reserve 2 cups (480 milliliters) of the noodle water. Drain, but do not rinse, the noodles.
  • In a large bowl, combine the reserved noodle water and the contents of all of the seasoning packets that came with the four packages of noodles, including any soup bases, vegetables and/or oil. The exact contents of the seasonings may vary from brand to brand; that's okay, just add them all. Whisk together.
  • Add the drained noodles and toss until the noodles are completely coated with the sauce. Add the steak and toss to combine.
  • Divide among four bowls, and top with the scallions and sesame chili oil.
