SESAME SHRIMP NOODLES



Sesame Shrimp Noodles image

I found this recipe in a Cooking Light magazine. The original recipe called for you to bake this dish, but I like it just as is. Very flavorful and everyone raved over it. I have made this quite a few times now, and it keeps getting better and better because I know how spicy or salty to make it. This is a dish that you can fine tune and add to it whatever you want. (peanuts, water chestnuts, broccoli, etc.)

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 ounces uncooked spaghetti or 8 ounces linguine, broken in half
1 lb shrimp or 6 chicken thighs
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 orange bell pepper
8 ounces mushrooms, slice (or 16 ounces)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (we used around 1-1 1/2 tablespoons)
3/4 cup sliced green onion
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
all purpose seasoning (for your shrimp)

Steps:

  • Cook pasta.
  • While pasta cooks, in a skillet (deep enough to hold liquid and pasta later on) put a little olive oil and throw in your bell peppers and mushrooms. Cook this down to your liking, and set them aside on a plate.
  • Add some more olive oil to your skillet and throw your shrimp and garlic inches Season your shrimp how you like them, I like to add a little Tony's Chachere's creole seasoning but you can do a basic all purpose seasoning on them. After cooked, set this aside.
  • In the same pan add the soy sauce, broth, red peppers, mushrooms, cornstarch (make sure you mix the cornstarch and sherry together with a fork in a separate bowl before adding) Keep stirring till mixture starts to thicken and bubble. I added an extra half tablespoon because I wanted my sauce a little thicker. Keep stirring constantly to make sure it doesn't burn.
  • Once thickened add vinegar and crushed red pepper.
  • Take off heat, add pasta, shrimp, sesame seeds. Toss well to combine all ingredients.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 pound Shrimp (peeled and cleaned (use medium to large shrimp))
2 tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce
2 large Garlic Cloves (grated or minced)
½ teaspoon Sesame Oil
½ teaspoon Ginger Powder (or grated fresh ginger if you have it on hand)
pinch of Crushed Red Pepper (or to taste)
1 tablespoon Oil (use a neutral (flavorless) oil with a high smoke point)
¼ cup Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons Canola Oil
2 tablespoons Green Onions (thinly sliced, plus more for garnish, if desired)
3 Garlic Cloves (grated or minced)
1 tablespoon Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
1 teaspoon Chili Oil
½ teaspoon Ginger Powder
pinch of Crushed Red Pepper (optional)
16 ounce Noodles (we used linguine in this dish)
Salt for the Pasta Water (1-2 tablespoons should do it)
Sesame Seeds for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Add the soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, ginger powder, and crushed red pepper, if using, to a large bowl. Stir the sauce with a fork to combine well, add the shrimp to the bowl and toss well. Refrigerate the shrimp if not using immediately.
  • To a medium bowl, add the soy sauce, canola oil, green onions, garlic, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, chili oil, ginger powder and crushed red pepper, if using. Stir well to combine.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the noodles and cook, according to package directions for al dente. Remember to salt the water. Drain the noodles and immediately return them to the pot. Take the pot off the heat. While the noodles are still steaming hot, add the sesame oil mixture. Toss to combine the ingredients well. Cover the pot to keep warm while you make the shrimp.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the skillet and raise the heat. When the shrimp starts sizzling, lower the heat to medium to medium-high. Cook the shrimp, stirring and turning them frequently for 4-5 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Serve the sesame noodles and top with a generous serving of shrimp. Garnish with extra green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
