Here’s a list of ingredients to get you started on this delightful culinary journey. Feel free to adjust and substitute based on what you have at hand:
- 8 ounces of rice noodles
- 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup of broccoli florets
- 2 carrots, julienned
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger, grated
- Sliced green onions, for garnish

If you’re out of rice noodles, feel free to substitute with soba noodles or even spaghetti. The idea is to have a noodle that can soak up the sauce beautifully.
Instructions
- Start by cooking the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
- In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the garlic and ginger. Stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Return the shrimp to the pan, and add the cooked noodles.
- In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Pour this sauce over the noodles and vegetables, tossing everything to coat evenly.
- Cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined and heated through.
- Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
This dish comes together in a flash, making it perfect for those nights when you need something quick yet satisfying. Remember, cooking is all about intuition, so feel free to adjust seasoning to your taste.
