• 1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
• cup sesame oil
• cup soy sauce

Step 3: Drain the pasta well in a colander set in the sink.

Step 4: In a large bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, chili oil, and sugar.

Step 5: Toss the cooked pasta in the dressing, ensuring the pasta is well coated.

Step 6: Sprinkle the pasta with sesame seeds, chopped green onion, and diced red bell pepper.

Step 7: Serve the dish warm, or cover and refrigerate it for a refreshing cold salad.
