    noodle bowls with spicy shrimp

    As far as shrimp recipes go, these spicy noodles are among the best. Slurpy rice noodles with crisp veggies, spicy shrimp, and tons of flavorful herbs make this noodle bowl recipe irresistible.

    Thai spicy noodles are made with a combination of stir-fried vegetables and crisp fresh vegetables. This combo paired with spicy noodles and shrimp makes for an easy weeknight dinner that's always better than take-out.

    Spicy Noodles

    Making restaurant-style shrimp noodles bowls at home is way easier than you might think.

    The beautiful thing about this recipe is that you can use whatever veggies you happen to have on hand. You can also substitute chicken breast or chicken thigh for the shrimp.

    What You Need

    noodle bowl ingredients
    • Rice Noodles. This recipe calls for wide rice noodles, which are found in the ethnic section of most grocery stores.
    • Soy sauce. Soy sauce or tamari can be used in this recipe. If you're avoiding soy, you can use coconut aminos.
    • Sesame oil. Sauté the shrimp and veggies in a few teaspoons of sesame oil.
    • Shrimp. You can buy cleaned tail-off shrimp for the most effortless preparation. I sometimes like to use tail-on shrimp in this recipe as well.
    • Veggies. Ginger, garlic, onions, and bell peppers make up the stir-fried vegetables. You can add in more of your favorites, like snow peas and carrots.
    • Aromatics. Basil, mint, and green onion add herbaceous freshness to this spicy noodle bowl.
    • Fresh vegetable toppings. Cucumbers and beans sprouts add a fantastic crunch to these spicy noodles.
    • Limes. Freshly squeezed lime juice adds a fresh burst of lime flavor that works well with the spiciness in this bowl.

    How to Make Spicy Noodles At Home

    1. Cook the noodles. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Cook noodles according to the directions and set them aside.
    2. Prepare the fresh veggies. Slice up the cucumbers, basil, green onions, and mint. Set them aside to toss in at the end.

    4. Sauté the Vegetables. Add the remaining teaspoon of sesame oil to a hot pan or wok. Add the onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Then add the peppers and sauté for another 3 minutes.
    5. Make the sauce. Add the soy sauce and bring the liquid to a boil.
