Izakaya Style Short Rib Udon Stirfry

Welcome to Day 12 of cooking Street Food for 21 days! TEAM UDON IS BACK!!! I am here with another super quick but tasty udon dish; I told you I had more coming! This time I am making Izakaya Style Short Rib Udon Stirfry, and yes, I am adding butter to the dish to make it EXTRA creamy. I always order this whenever I go to local Izakaya restaurants, and this dish pairs WELL with a nice glass of ice-cold beer. 

This dish takes less than 15 minutes to make and is perfect for an easy weeknight dinner. If you are looking for a more easy weeknight dinner recipe, I have many more udon recipes that I made in my 21 Days Dinner Series!
