Instructions

Step 1: Cook 8 oz dried rice noodles according to package instructions until tender but firm. Drain and toss with 1 tbsp sesame oil to prevent sticking.

Step 3: Add 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves, stirring constantly for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4: Pour in a sauce made by mixing 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp honey. Cook shrimp in sauce for 2-3 minutes until fully cooked and glaze thickens.
Step 5: Toss cooked noodles with the shrimp mixture, sprinkle with 2 thinly sliced scallions, 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes before serving hot.
