Equipment

Large skillet

Ingredients

1 tbsp sesame oil, divided
2 cups snap peas
5 oz shiitake mushrooms, sliced
1/2 small onion, sliced
1/4 tsp salt
2 large garlic cloves
1/2 tsp ginger, minced
3/4 lb large shrimp
2 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
2 tbsp packed brown sugar
2 tsp rice vinegar
1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken stock, plus more if needed
2 packages ramen noodles

Instructions

Heat a large skillet to a medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add 2 teaspoons of sesame oil. Add in the snap peas, mushrooms, onions and salt. Saute, stirring often until peas are bright green and mushrooms and onions are softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add in garlic and ginger, cook another 1-2 minutes. Remove the veggies from the pan and set aside.
Season the shrimp with salt and pepepr on both sides. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of sesame oil to the pan. Add the shrimp. Cook the shrimp until bright pink and curled into the letter C. It should take about 3 minutes. Remove from pan, set aside.
Pull the noodles in half so you have four bricks of noodles. Whisk tamari, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chiicken stock and soy sauce together in a small bowl or measuring cup. Add to the pan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add the noodles. Let the noodles sit in the simmering liquid for 30 seconds. Use tongs or chops sticks to flip over. Repeat until noodles are pliable. Use the tongs or chops sticks to pull all the noodles apart. Simmer until, stir often, until the noodles are cooked about 2-3 more minutes. If the sauce evaporated too much or the noodles soak up too much liquid, add a tablespoon of chicken stock at a time so there's enough liquid for the noodles to cook.
Toss the noodles in the sauce. Add the shrimp and veggies to the noodless. Toss to combine.
