Easy Shrimp Stir Fry Noodles
Description
This stir fry begins by cooking spaghetti noodles in salted boiling water, adding broccoli florets near the end to soften them while maintaining texture. A homemade sauce blends soy sauce or coconut aminos, freshly grated ginger, honey, hoisin sauce, orange juice, sesame oil, and chili flakes to introduce layers of savory, sweet, and subtly spicy flavor.
Shrimp is cooked in olive or peanut oil with minced garlic and seasoning, then combined with julienned carrots and thin bell pepper strips to maintain their crunch. The cooked noodles and broccoli are added to the skillet, and the prepared sauce is poured over everything, tossing to evenly coat the ingredients.
The dish is garnished with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds, which add freshness and texture contrast. The result is a balanced meal with tender shrimp, crisp vegetables, and chewy noodles flavored with a complex yet accessible sauce. It works well for a weeknight dinner or quick lunch.
