This Sweet & Spicy Ground Pork over Garlic Butter Noodles is a quick and flavorful meal made with simple pantry ingredients.

Add some oil to a pan over medium high heat. Place the pork in and press down (flatten) with a spoon or flipper. Allow to sear on one side. The pork should begin to turn a dark brown. Break it up and fry until cooked through.
To make the sauce, add the honey, soy sauce, wine vinegar, ginger, garlic, sriracha, hoisin, and pepper to a small bowl. Mix until well combined.
Pour the sauce over the pork mixture, stir, and mix well. Simmer for a few minutes until the sauce reaches a soft boil. Set aside.
Add the noodles to a pot of boiling water. Cook for a few minutes until tender. Drain and set aside. I usually do this while the pork is frying to save time.
Add the butter to a pan over medium high heat and allow it to melt down. Reduce the heat if the butter begins to burn. Place the garlic in followed by the hot pepper flakes. Stir and saute until the garlic is fragrant. Add the cooked noodles in and stir once again until well combined. Add in the parmesan cheese. Season with salt, pepper, and stir until combined.
Place the noodles on a plate and garnish with parsley. Add the pork to a second plate and garnish with green onions. You can serve seperately or combine the two. It's a matter of preference.
