Equipment
- Large skillet or wok
- Pot for Cooking Noodles
- Wooden Spoon or Spatula
- Measuring Cups and Spoons
- Colander
Ingredients
- 8 oz linguine or yakisoba noodles
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms sliced
- 6 –8 garlic cloves minced
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp mirin optional
- ½ tsp sugar
- ½ tsp chili flakes optional
- 2 green onions sliced, for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add linguine or yakisoba noodles and cook according to the package instructions (about 7-9 minutes). Drain the noodles and set aside. Reserve a small amount of pasta water in case you need it later.
- Sauté the Mushrooms and Garlic: Heat sesame oil and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about 4-5 minutes until they soften and begin to brown. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, mirin (if using), sugar, and chili flakes (optional). Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms and garlic. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
- Toss the Noodles: Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss them in the sauce until they are evenly coated. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to thin it out.
- Finish with Cheese and Garnish: Remove from heat and stir in shredded Parmesan cheese until it melts into the noodles, creating a creamy, flavorful finish. Garnish with sliced green onions for a fresh, vibrant touch.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the noodles hot and enjoy the savory, garlicky goodness of your Yard House Shiitake Garlic Noodles!

Notes
- For a vegetarian version, ensure to use vegetable broth instead of any meat-based broths or sauces.
- Gluten-free: Use tamari instead of soy sauce and gluten-free noodles like rice noodles.
- To make it spicy, increase the amount of chili flakes or add a splash of sriracha.
- You can adjust the Parmesan to suit your taste, or use a dairy-free cheese for a vegan option.
