RECIPE FOR SHRIMP CHOW MEIN RECIPES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add chow mein noodles and cook over medium heat until cooked through but still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• While noodles cook, heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook and stir until golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add shrimp and cook and stir until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 5 minutes. Add consomme, celery, and salt; cook, covered, for 5 minutes. Add bean sprouts and mushrooms and bring to a simmer.
• Blend water, cornstarch, soy sauce, and sugar together in a small bowl. Add mixture to the pot and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve over cooked chow mein noodles.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, soak noodles in hot water 10 minutes. Add soaked noodles to pot. Once water returns to a boil, cook until al dente, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, run under cold water to stop cooking, and drain again.
• In a small bowl, whisk together broth, oyster sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, chili sauce, ginger, and garlic; set aside.
• In a large skillet (preferably cast iron), heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high. Add shrimp in a single layer and season lightly with salt. Cook, flipping once, until shrimp are pink, opaque, and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add snow peas and white and light-green parts of scallions; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender and lightly charred in places, about 3 minutes. Add broth mixture and boil until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add sprouts, shrimp, and noodles and toss until noodles are well coated in sauce. Serve immediately, sprinkled with scallion tops.
