  • Author: Chef Sally

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 8 oz protein-enriched noodles or whole wheat noodles
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 1 medium carrot julienned
  • 0.5 cup edamame shelled
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with a small drizzle of sesame oil to prevent clumping. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, honey, cornstarch, and water until fully smooth. Set aside within arms reach.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until pink and just opaque. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  4. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet. Add the garlic, ginger, and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
  5. Add the snap peas, carrot, and edamame. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp and bright in color.
  6. Return the shrimp and cooked noodles to the skillet. Pour the sauce over everything and toss well to coat. Cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and clings evenly to the noodles.
  7. Remove from heat. Stir in the sliced green onions and garnish with sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Do not overcook the shrimp since they finish cooking in the sauce. Swap in any vegetables you have on hand. For extra protein, add cubed tofu or diced cooked chicken. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Freezing is not recommended.
