Instructions
Cook rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sriracha, lime juice, sesame oil, and red chili flakes to create the sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the shrimp turns pink and is cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and pour the prepared sauce over them. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly.

Serve the noodle bowls hot, garnished with extra cilantro, scallions, and a wedge of lime, if desired.
