  4. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry large skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes until golden; set aside.
  5. Heat half the canola oil in the skillet over high heat. Sear the pork in one layer for 3 to 4 minutes, turning, until it reaches 145°F (63°C); move to a plate and let rest 3 minutes.
  6. Add the remaining half of the canola oil, then the yellow onion, red bell pepper and green bell pepper; stir-fry 4 minutes until crisp-tender.
  7. Add the garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes and stir 30 seconds until fragrant.
  8. Stir the sauce, pour it in with the drained noodles and the pork, and toss 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the noodles.
  9. Top with the sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds and serve.
