Say hello to your new drunchies. This Drunken Noodles masterpiece was created by Jet Tila (Iron Chef veteran). The dish is packed with flavor and is just the thing you crave after kicking back a few brews on Saturday night.
Now, all you have to do is make sure to cook them ahead of time, so you don’t have to find a way to do that once you’re 6 shots in . . .
