THAI PEANUT SHRIMP, ASPARAGUS AND NOODLES



Thai Peanut Shrimp, Asparagus and Noodles image

I made up this recipe after experimenting with several different recipes from many different sources. I like to serve this with recipe #101790 (Oriental Cucumber Salad) and either potstickers or hot and sour soup. You can also make it with other meats like chicken or pork, or rice instead of noodles. This is one of my DH's favorite meals.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 quarts water, cold
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 lb shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/2 cup peanut butter, smooth
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 cup water
3 -4 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic salt (optional)
1 teaspoon ginger, minced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (I like Cholula)
2 tablespoons cornstarch, mixed with 2 T Water (optional)
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 onion, diced
1 red pepper, diced
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 cups asparagus, cut into 1 inch pieces
3 cups noodles, cooked and drained

Steps:

  • Mix water, salt and sugar together with a whisk until salt and sugar are dissolved. Add shrimp and let it sit in the brine for at least 30 minutes. Longer doesn't hurt. Drain shrimp well and pat dry with a paper towel when ready to cook.
  • While shrimp is brining, combine all sauce ingredients except cornstarch and water slurry in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat for 30 minutes. Cornstarch/water slurry can be whisked in if sauce isn't thick enough after heating.
  • Pour canola oil into a large, hot, non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Add onion, red pepper and garlic. Stir-fry for 7 minutes, until veggies are softened. Add asparagus and continue stir-frying for about 5 more minutes. Pour veggies into a large bowl and set aside.
  • Re-heat skillet over medium high heat. Add additional canola oil if desired. Add drained shrimp and stir-fry until they are pink, about 5 - 7 minutes. Add reserved veggies and noodles and stir well. Pour peanut sauce over everything and combine.

THAI SHRIMP AND NOODLES

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons Peanut Butter
2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
1 tablespoon Honey
1 tablespoon Light Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon Red Chili Paste
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 pound Medium Shrimp, Peeled and Deveined
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper
1 pound Pad Thai Style Rice Noodles or Linguine
2 pieces Carrots, Peeled and Shredded
1/2 cup Dry Roasted Peanuts, Chopped
2 pieces Green Onions, Thinly Sliced
4 tablespoons Cilantro, Chopped

Steps:

  • Whisk together soy sauce, peanut butter, vegetable oil, sesame oil, honey, brown sugar, and red chili paste. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat olive oil in a wok. Add shrimp and cook 6-8 minutes until pink and opaque. Season with salt and pepper. Maintain low heat.
  • Cook noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water, drain well, and add to wok with shrimp.
  • Stir in soy sauce mixture, carrots, half of the peanuts, green onions, and half of the cilantro.
  • Toss to combine and serve immediately. Garnish with remaining peanuts and cilantro.

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: For this recipe, you'll need thin rice noodles, also known as Pad Thai noodles or Sen Lek. They cook quickly and absorb the flavors of the sauce well.
  • Prep your ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will help you save time and ensure that your Pad Thai comes out perfectly.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the noodles from sticking and will give them a nice smoky flavor.
  • Cook the noodles properly: Be sure to cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: When stir-frying, it's important not to overcrowd the wok. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly and will make it difficult to toss them.
  • Add the sauce last: The sauce is the most important part of Pad Thai, so be sure to add it last. This will help prevent the noodles from becoming overcooked and will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish your Pad Thai with fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, and mint. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Pad Thai is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With its combination of sweet, sour, and savory flavors, Pad Thai is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give Pad Thai a try. You won't be disappointed!
