Ingredients
  • 10 oz. udon noodles
  • 2 cups water
  • ¼ cup soy sauce, plus 2 tbsp
  • ½ cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp chili crisp, plus more for serving
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated on a microplane
  • ½ cup scallions, diced, plus more for serving
  • Salt, to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for serving
Instructions
  • Place the udon noodles, water, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce in the Instant Pot®. Toss the noodles in the water to coat them, which helps prevent sticking during cooking. Close the lid.
  • Select Pressure Cook on High/More for 3 minutes. Once the time is up, immediately flip the valve to release the pressure. Press Cancel and remove the lid.
  • While the noodles are cooking, make the sauce. In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, chili crisp, lime juice, grated garlic, and scallions until smooth. Add salt to taste.
  • Pour the sauce over the noodles in the inner pot and toss to coat evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water to thin it out.
  • Divide the noodles into bowls for serving. Top with freshly chopped cilantro, scallions, and extra chili crisp. Enjoy!
