Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil in a large pot. Add 12 oz rice noodles and cook for 6-7 minutes until tender but still firm, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb peeled shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then transfer to a plate.
  3. Step 3: Add 2 tbsp minced ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves to the skillet, stirring constantly for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned. Immediately add 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp honey, and 1/4 cup water, stirring to combine until the sauce bubbles.
  4. Step 4: Return shrimp to the skillet with drained noodles, tossing to coat evenly. Cook for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the noodles. Remove from heat and stir in 4 sliced green onions.
  5. Step 5: Divide into bowls and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sesame seeds before serving.
