Instant Pot Yaka Mein (Stovetop Version Also)

31 Comments August 2, 2018 FrugalHausfrau

I have seen so many articles and posts about Yaka Mein ever since Anthony Bourdain featured Miss Linda Green on his show, “No Reservations.” Yaka Mein first came on my radar in this article from Go Nola, so I felt I was getting a message: Make Yaka Mein!

Yaka Mein, instant pot or stovetop

Yaka Mein has a long history, so I’m not going to go too much into that because it’s been covered extensively elsewhere, like in this article from The Deep South. I am going to tell you to make it if I can be so bossy! And make it soon. There’s no need to lose another day without having Yaka Mein in your belly!

I know it’s mid-July, but I just had to do Barbecue Chicken Chili in the Instant Pot with some of the Honey Barbecue Pulled Chicken I made the other day. No Instant Pot? No worries. The stovetop instructions are here, too. Options are there if you don’t have leftover pulled chicken (or pork) to start with, too.

I wish we all had time to stand in front of the barbecue and have parties on the deck (or by the pool if you’re so lucky), but man, sometimes we’re just busy and need to eat! That’s when this big batch of Honey Barbecue Pulled Chicken is a lifesaver.

It seems I’m all about the summer party recipes, lately, not my typical everyday fare! (See the explanation marks? That proves it!) And this Loaded Baked Potato Salad is definitely one. Heck, it’s a party in a bowl.

Hi ya’all. I hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July. And I hope you ate your fill of everything summer has to offer, including Sweet Corn. If you have any Sweet Corn leftover (if you don’t, make some) you’ve gotta try Thai Street Corn. It’s a revelation.
