Instructions

In a bowl, sprinkle the shrimp with 1/4 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Toss to combine well. Set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 TB oil. Add onions and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden brown, 1 minute. Add garlic and a dash of kosher salt to the skillet and cook over medium until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and Set aside.
In same skillet, add 1 TB oil. Over medium high heat, place shrimp in even layer in the skillet, taking care not to overcrowd (may do this in batches.) Let cook without stirring until first side turns opaque, about 1 min. Turn shrimp over and cook until other side just turns opaque, about 1 min. Immediately remove from heat and set aside.
Bring large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add soba noodles and cook, stirring, just until tender, about 4 min. Drain well and rinse with cold water. In a medium bowl, combine 2 TB olive oil, soy sauce, tamari, honey, lime zest, and lime juice. Add cool noodles and toss well. Add kosher salt and black pepper to taste, if needed.
Arrange seasoned soba noodles on a large serving platter or individual plates. Sprinkle with scallions, cilantro, crushed red pepper, and sauteéd onions and garlic. Arrange cooked shrimp on top and serve with lime wedges. Serve immediately.
