Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 8 oz dry spaghetti noodles and cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and toss with 1 tbsp sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: While the noodles cook, heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb peeled and deveined shrimp along with 1 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring often until shrimp turn pink and opaque.
Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes.
Step 4: Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the shrimp and pour the sauce over. Toss everything together over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until the noodles are coated and heated through.
Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 thinly sliced scallions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
