9 oz peeled shrimp from 18 oz raw shrimp
20 oz cooked wide rice noodles
6 oz white mushrooms sliced
2 oz mung bean sprouts
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tbsp garlic minced
1 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
2 1/2 tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp water
1 tsp sriracha
1/2 tsp hoisin sauce
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp white sesame seeds toasted
1 tbsp black sesame seeds toasted
1/4 cup scallions chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

In a bowl, mix together 2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp water, 1 1/2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp sriracha, 1/2 tsp hoisin sauce, and 1/2 tsp ground black pepper. Set aside.

Heat 1/4 cup canola oil in a non-stick skillet over high heat, until smoke appears. Reduce the heat to medium, then stir in 2 tbsp minced garlic for just about 30 seconds.

Add 9 oz peeled shrimp and keep stirring to cook for 3 minutes.

Add 6 oz button mushrooms and keep stirring to cook for 3 minutes.

Add the prepared sauce and wait for it to start simmering.

Add 20 oz cooked wide rice noodles and stir to coat them in sauce. Add 2 oz mung bean sprouts and stir for another 3 minutes, or until the sauce gets absorbed.

Turn off the heat. Sprinkle 1 tbsp black sesame seeds, 1 tbsp white sesame seeds, and garnish with 1/4 cup scallions.

Enjoy!
