  • Yield: 4 people 1x

Description

A light and flavorful salad of soba noodles, vegetables, garlic lime shrimp, and a ginger ponzu dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ pound soba noodles
  • ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon ponzu 
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 3 teaspoons ginger, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper and 1 orange bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 jalapenos, seeds removed and finely chopped
  • 1 cup fresh edamame beans
  • 1.5 pounds fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • ¼ cup of toasted chopped almonds
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: Add the ponzu, sesame oil, rice vinegar and ginger to a bowl and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set dressing aside.
  2. Prepare the noodles: Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add noodles and boil until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Drain noodles in a colander and rinse them with cold water to keep them from sticking. Transfer noodles to a large serving bowl.
  3. Make the vegetables: Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, bell peppers and jalapenos to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Add vegetables to the bowl of noodles.
  4. Make the shrimp: Melt the butter in the same pan over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper and sprinkle evenly with the garlic powder. Add shrimp to the pan and sauté until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lime juice.
  5. Assemble: Add the edamame, shrimp and dressing to the noodle bowl and toss to combine. Serve with almonds on top.
