SHRIMP CHOW MEIN
The star of this at-home version of the Chinese takeout favorite? An umami-packed sauce made with chicken broth, oyster sauce, rice-wine vinegar, sesame oil, sambal oelek, and fresh ginger and garlic. It's a delicious foil for tender egg noodles, plump shrimp, and crisp-tender snow peas.

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.
