Pin This RecipeEasy Weeknight Meal
This Spicy Steak Ramen is a weeknight favorite! It only takes about 15 minutes to make and tastes great! Skirt steak simmered in hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, onion, garlic, and a touch of brown sugar and tossed with ramen noodles. I could seriously eat this every week and never get tired of it. It is SOOOO much better than takeout.
How to Make Quick Spicy Steak Ramen Noodles
This Spicy Steak Ramen is super easy to make. Start with cutting some skirt steak into strips. Give the steak a quick sear in the skillet and then add the sauce. Hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, onion, garlic, and some brown sugar. Let the sauce simmer while the ramen noodles cook. Toss the ramen noodles and the steak together and serve.
You can use any flavor of ramen noodles. You aren’t going to use the seasoning packet, just the noodles.
I used a pound of skirt steak for this recipe. Feel free to swap it out for your favorite cut of steak.
If you want your steak rare, remove the steak from the skillet before adding the sauce. Add the steak back to the pan when you add the cooked noodles.
Feel free to add some asparagus, broccoli, mushrooms, or bell pepper to the mixture.

This has become a go to in my house. So friggen easy and sooooo good! Thank you! I do 1/4 hot sauce, 1/4 soya, fry in sesame oil, add bok Choy, carrots, broccoli and cold cucumbers as a garnish. 5 out of 5 stars! Can’t thank you enough
Used leftover ribeye. Super yummy!
Your thinnest slicing control for your skirt/flank steak can be achieved with a 20-30 minute freezer placement. Saran/plastic wrap and please don’t forget to set a timer. Your firmed-up steak and a decent serrated knife should reward you handsomely. Works well on pork loins, too.
Do you think adding the flavor packet would be a good idea or take away from the dish?
I have Alpha-Gal and cannot eat meat. Would chicken work in this recipe?
It sounds so good!
Thanks
Sure!
I made this recipe with alterations and it was BOMB!
Homemade noodles were made. I used New York steak, with a salt prep and pepper sautéed with butter 3 minutes per side. Medium rare sliced and sautéed off later mixing everything together! I added T. Soy sauce, rice vinegar, and Shiitake mushroom. Topped off with ramen marinated eggs. The only change I would make is cut the hot sauce to half or more. I only put in 1/4 c and would cut it down to 1/8c.
Just made this. It was delicious but overly hot. After seeing the reviews I only used 1/4 cup of Sriracha since I did not have anything else on hand. Boy was that hot! Either way this is a dish I will make again. Next time I will buy Frank’s or use less sriracha.
Very good. Smooth flavors.
Absolutely loved it! I used stir fry beef instead of left over! The sweet and spicy so yummy!
Amazing. Sweet and spicy. Quick and easy. Yum.
Delicious! I used leftover flank steak from Costco and had to use thin spaghetti, but both my husband and I loved it. I’d reduce the amount of hot sauce but my hubby added red pepper. 5 stars!
If I want this to be mild (not spicy) would I just omit the hot sauce? Or use something else in its place?
I replaced the hot sauce with a half cup of soy sauce and took out the vinegar. It was delicious!
This was delicious! In the step where sauce is added I did 1/4 cup hot sauce and 1/4 cup soy sauce. Will definitely make again.
This was ok, but overly spicy (and I love spicy food). I also feel like this should be an Asian dish so I’ve used different items.
For the sauce I replaced the 1/2 cup of Frank’s with 1/4 cup of Siracha and 1/4 cup of teriyaki sauce. I then replaced the 2 tbls of Worcestershire sauce with 2 tbls of soy sauce.
I then added some sliced carrot and Asian cabbage to the dish to make it a little more well-rounded.
Is vinegar an important ingredient? It’s the only item I don’t have in the house.
I think it would be fine without it
Could you make this with chicken?
Sure!
Made this with Thai noodles and added a 1/2 cup of soy sauce. Hot & Delicious!!!
I cut the hot sauce in half and added a little soy sauce. Yum! I also fried an egg to make it for breakfast. Will be using this recipe again.
SO glad you enjoyed it. I love the fried egg! I must try that next time.
Can you tell me what you mean by hot sauce? I am a little unsure and a lot embarrassed to ask this question. I love your site and use so many recipes.
I used Frank’s Hot Sauce. Crystals is also a good brand.
This was so yummy! I used Frank’s Red Hot sauce but cut it in half to 1/4 cup. I am glad I did because it had just the right amount of spice! I didn’t have any Ramen noodles on hand so I used vermicelli pasta and it worked great.
I loved the balance of sweet and tangy and spicy flavors. I will definitely make it again!
What kind of hot sauce is used?
I used Frank’s Hot Sauce. Crystals is also a good brand.
This sounds so good! What hot sauce would you recommend? Will something like Frank's Red Hot work or should we use sriracha?
I used Frank’s Hot Sauce. Crystals is also a good brand.
