Instructions
- If using dried noodles, boil the noodles according to package instructions minus 1 minute, until al dente. If using fresh lo mein noodles, boil for 1 minute total, until al dente. Rinse with tap water, drain, and set aside.
- Combine the shrimp and all the marinade ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Mix well and let marinate for 10 minutes.
- Whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Spread the shrimp in the pan. Cook for 30 to 45 seconds without touching, until the bottom turns slightly golden. Flip to cook the other side for 30 to 45 seconds, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is just cooked through. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
- Pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and the ginger, garlic and green onion whites. Add carrot and cabbage. Cook and stir until the veggies just start to turn soft, 1 minute or so.
- Add the noodles and pour in the sauce. Toss a few times to mix everything.
- Add the bean sprouts and green onion greens. Toss to mix everything together well, until the sauce is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the cooked shrimp to the pan and toss again to mix well. Transfer everything to serving plates and serve hot as a main dish.
Notes
- Dark soy sauce adds a nice dark brown color to the dish. You can use regular soy sauce instead. Your dish will come out slightly lighter but still be tasty.
