Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 1 tablespoon ginger (fresh, grated)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 300 grams noodles (your choice, such as ramen or rice noodles)
- 2 stalks scallions (sliced, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon wasabi paste
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by marinating the shrimp. In a mixing bowl, combine grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, chili flakes, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and a pinch of salt. Add shrimp to the bowl, toss to coat, and set aside for 10 minutes.
While the shrimp marinates, prepare the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and 1 tablespoon of water to create the wasabi sauce. Adjust wasabi quantity according to spice preference. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil and toss in the cooked noodles. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, ensuring they are evenly coated with any remaining sauce from the shrimp.
Transfer the noodles to serving plates. Top with cooked shrimp.
Drizzle the wasabi sauce over the shrimp and noodles.
Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy immediately!
