Description

Garlicky noodles dripping in a sweet, buttery soy sauce are hard to resist in this kid-friendly noodle dish that's perfect for potlucks.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup thinly sliced celery
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup white sugar

Directions

1 Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
2 Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add celery and onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful it doesn't burn.
3 Mix soy sauce and sugar together in a small bowl; stir in to the vegetable mixture. Immediately add drained spaghetti and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve hot.
