Ingredients

  • 8 oz Rice noodles
  • 2 tsp Sesame oil
  • 1 Green bell pepper seeded and chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 2 tsp Fresh ginger minced
  • 1 lb Shrimp peeled and deveined tail off
  • 1/3 cup Reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup Chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup Tomatoes diced can
  • 2 tbsp Sriracha sauce
  • 2 tbsp Rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 3 Scallions thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to package directions. Drain.
  • In a non-stick pan over medium heat, heat the sesame oil. Add the peppers and cook until soft, bout 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger, then sauté for 1 minute. Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the shrimp start to firm up and become pink, about 3 minutes, then remove from the pan.
  • Pour in the soy sauce, chicken broth, tomato, Sriracha, and rice wine vinegar and whisk until combined. Mix the cornstarch with a little bit of water to dissolve it completely and stir it into the pan a little at a time to thicken the sauce. Simmer for 1-2 minutes, until the sauce reduces and thickens.
  • Toss in the noodles and shrimp. Garnish with scallions before serving.
