Instructions

Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add 8 oz rice noodles and cook for 5-7 minutes until tender but still firm, then drain and rinse under cold water.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then transfer to a plate.
Step 3: In the same skillet, add 2 cups broccoli florets and 3 minced garlic cloves, stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender.
Step 4: Return the drained rice noodles to the skillet, then add 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes. Toss vigorously for 2 minutes until heated through and evenly coated.
Step 5: Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss to combine. Season with salt to taste, ensuring the sauce clings to every noodle.
