Ingredients

10 ounces - linguine
1 lb - ground beef
5 clove - garlic
⅓ cup - soy sauce
⅓ cup - brown sugar
¼ cup - beef broth
3 tablespoons - Hoisin sauce
1 tsp - fresh ginger
½ tsp - ground black pepper
¼ tsp - red pepper
1 tbsp - cornstarch
2 tablespoons - water
4 - green onions

Instructions

Prepare pasta according to package directions, but drain the noodles when they still have 1 minute of cooking time left. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef and cook, crumbling the meat, until no longer pink; drain excess fat from the pan.
Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add soy sauce, brown sugar, beef broth, hoisin sauce, ginger, black pepper and crushed red pepper; stir until completely combined.
Dissolve cornstarch in cold water and add it to the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes.
Add the noodles to the pan and cook for 2 minutes longer.
Top with green onions and sesame seeds.
