Ingredients

8 ounces thin rice noodles

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

8 thin-cut boneless pork chops (1/4 inch thick; about 1 1/4 pounds total)

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons sambal oelek, plus more for serving

1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced into matchsticks

4 scallions, sliced (dark green parts separated)

4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, sliced

2 small carrots, thinly sliced on an angle

4 ounces snap peas, halved lengthwise

Directions

  1. Cook the noodles as the label directs. Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, coat a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Generously season the pork chops with salt and pepper and arrange in an even layer on the pan. Whisk together the soy sauce and sambal oelek in a small bowl.
  2. Preheat the broiler. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, the ginger and the white and light green scallion parts in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until nearly tender, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots and snap peas; cook until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Add the noodles and sambal sauce and cook, tossing, until the noodles are warmed through and well coated, about 2 minutes.
  3. Broil the pork chops until charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Divide the noodle mixture among bowls. Top with the pork chops, scallion greens and more sambal oelek.
