Tips for the Best Results

  • Make sure to not overcook the shrimp; they should be just pink and firm.
  • Feel free to substitute vegetables based on what you have on hand or prefer.
  • For extra heat, add a splash of sriracha or red pepper flakes to the dish.

Easy Variations

  • Swap shrimp for chicken, beef, or tofu for a different protein option.
  • Use gluten-free noodles for a gluten-free version.
  • Add a splash of sesame oil for an extra layer of flavor.

What to Serve With It

  • Steamed dumplings for a delicious appetizer.
  • A fresh cucumber salad for a refreshing side.
  • Egg rolls to complement the meal.
