Noodles

Method

Prepare Noodles

  1. 1

    Cook Chow Mein Noodles

    Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Add the chow mein noodles and cook according to package instructions (usually around 4-5 minutes) until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cook Shrimp and Vegetables

  1. 2

    Sauté Shrimp

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 3

    Stir-Fry Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper, julienned carrots, and chopped green onions. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Make Sauce

  1. 4

    Combine Sauce Ingredients

    In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and 2 tablespoons of water until well combined.

Combine and Serve

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the shrimp chow mein hot, garnished with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro on top. Enjoy your meal!
