Best Spicy Shrimp And Noodles Recipes

CRISPY SHRIMP OR CALAMARI WITH CHINESE NOODLES AND SPICY GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. In a wok or deep, heavy saucepan, heat about 3 inches of peanut oil. (The oil must be very hot, about 375 degrees F.)
• Make the sauce: In a large skillet or saute pan, heat the 2 tablespoons of peanut oil. Over medium-high heat, saute the garlic just until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the sugar and continue to saute until the garlic begins to caramelize, 1 or 2 minutes longer. Deglaze the pan with the rice wine, rice wine vinegar, and soy sauce. Add the carrots, haricots verts, and 2 ounces of the green onion, reserving 1 ounce as garnish. Stir in the chili sauce and continue to cook until the sauce is reduced by half.
• Meanwhile, add salt to the boiling water and cook the noodles until they are al dente. Drain the noodles well and stir them into the sauce until they are well coated.
• Season the shrimp or calamari with salt and pepper and toss with the flour to coat lightly. Deep-fry the shrimp or calamari in small batches until golden, 1 or 2 minutes. (The easiest way to do this is to use a fine-mesh basket or strainer. Place the shrimp or calamari in the basket and gently ease the basket into the oil.) Drain on clean paper towels.
• To serve, divide the noodles and vegetables among 4 large warm plates. Arrange the shrimp or calamari over and around each portion and garnish with the remaining green onions. Drizzle a little sesame oil over the noodles and serve immediately.
• Prepare an ice bath. Separate the garlic into cloves and remove the ends of each clove. Fill a small saucepan with water. Salt lightly and bring to a boil. Carefully drop the whole cloves into the water and blanch for 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and immediately plunge into the ice water to stop the cooking process. Repeat the process. Drain the garlic and dry it well. The peels should slip off easily. Cut the garlic into slices and use as needed.

SPICY NOODLES WITH GINGER-GARLIC SHRIMP AND WASABI SAUCE

Steps:

• In a skillet, sauté the shrimp, ginger, and garlic in the oil for 3 minutes or until shrimp is cooked. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain; rinse in cold water and drain again.
• To serve, layer noodles, shrimp, cabbage, carrots, radishes, basil, and jalapeno in individual bowls. Pour dressing over top of each serving and sprinkle cashews or wasabi peas over top.
• A Word of Caution: I highly suggest using the recommended 1 1/2 tsp of wasabi paste to start. Only add more if, after mixing it with the rest of the ingredients in the individual bowls, additional heat is desired. The sauce by itself never seemed hot to us, so we used almost an entire tube of wasabi -- and subsequently cried our way through dinner.

GLASS NOODLES WITH SHRIMP AND SPICY MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles according to package directions until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer noodles to a colander and rinse under cold water until cool; drain well.
• In the same pot of boiling water, add shrimp. Poach over high until pink and just opaque throughout, 2 minutes. Drain shrimp and rinse under cold water.
• While the noodles cook, in a large bowl, combine mustard powder and 2 tablespoons very hot water; mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom. Add vinegar, ginger and sugar. Whisking constantly, drizzle in oil until well combined; season with salt and pepper. Reserve 1/3 cup of this dressing in a small bowl.
• Add cooled noodles to the large bowl of mustard sauce, season with salt and pepper, and toss until noodles are evenly coated. (Using clean hands works best, but otherwise use tongs.) Add shrimp, cucumbers, bell pepper and the reserved 1/3 cup dressing; season with salt and pepper, and toss until well combined. Season to taste.
• Divide noodle mixture among shallow bowls. Garnish with scallions and eggs, if using.

SPICY CHINESE SHRIMP AND SWEET POTATO NOODLES RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• To make the sauce, combine the Hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sambal oelek or chili paste, sesame oil, 1/2-inch grated ginger, pineapple juice, soy sauce, lime juice, and honey, and mix well. Add the shrimp and set aside to sit for 20 minutes while you prep everything else. In a large skillet heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add the serrano, ginger, and garlic. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the peppers and radishes, and sauté for 5 to 8 minutes, until softened. Toss in the sweet potato noodles. Add the sauce that the shrimp is marinating in, but hold the shrimp for now, and stir in the sweet chili sauce. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook for about five minutes, tossing once until the sweet potato noodles begin to soften. Add in the shrimp and cook for 3 to 5 minutes longer until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Serve and top with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro.

Steps:

• In a 450-degree oven or over an open flame from the stovetop, grill or broiler, roast the shallots, garlic and galangal until blackened. Peel and discard the skins, finely chop, then pound in a mortar or purée in a food processor to make a paste. Stir in the salt and set aside.
• Skim off 1/2 cup of the creamy part of the can of coconut milk and set aside; pour the rest in a medium pot. Add 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then add the mung beans, reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a wok over low heat, then add the shredded coconut. Stir continuously until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the coconut to a plate to cool. Clean the wok, return to the heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the reserved paste and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the reserved coconut cream and cook, stirring, until a layer of oil appears, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, beginning with 2 teaspoons and adding more to taste. Stir well for 30 seconds, then turn off the heat.
• Place the shrimp in the simmering coconut milk and poach until just pink, about 2 minutes. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and roughly grind two-thirds of the shrimp in a food processor. Combine the whole and puréed shrimp in a small bowl and set aside.
• Add the chili-paste mixture to the pot of coconut milk. Add the peanuts and two-thirds of the toasted coconut, crumbling it as you add it to the pot. Add the shrimp, palm sugar and fish sauce. Remove from heat and add lime juice to taste. Adjust the sugar, fish sauce and lime juice as needed; the dish should be sweet, sour and salty, with a kick of heat from the chili. Before serving, stir in the remaining toasted coconut. Serve over cooked noodles or rice and garnish with green mango, sliced green beans and fried shallots, garlic and chilies.
