The springy ramen noodles soak up every ounce of this umami-packed sauce, while a touch of fresh ginger and optional chili flakes add just the right amount of heat. Ready in just 30 minutes, this skillet masterpiece is perfect for busy nights and a great way to upgrade pantry staples like ramen. Garnish with fragrant green onions and a squeeze of lime to brighten up every bite, and enjoy a wholesome, fuss-free meal that tastes restaurant-worthy.
Bring a medium pot of water to boil and cook the ramen noodles according to the package directions, usually 2-3 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Set the stir fry sauce aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the same skillet. Stir in the garlic, ginger, and chili flakes (if using), cooking for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add the bell peppers, carrots, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, followed by the cooked ramen noodles. Pour the prepared stir fry sauce over the mixture.
Toss everything together using tongs to ensure the noodles, shrimp, and vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and a squeeze of lime, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
