Cooking Steps
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Trim and remove strings from snap peas. Quarter lime. Roughly chop cilantro. • Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• While noodles cook, rinse shrimp* under cold water, then pat dry. Season all over with garlic powder. • Drizzle oil in a hot large pan. Add shrimp, snap peas, and bok choy and napa cabbage. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are browned and tender and shrimp are opaque and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
• Stir sweet soy glaze, chili sauce, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4), and chili flakes to taste into pan with shrimp and veggies. Cook, stirring, until coated, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat. • Stir in drained noodles and juice from two lime wedges (four wedges for 4) until thoroughly coated and combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. (For 4, transfer everything to a large bowl to combine.)
• Garnish lo mein with peanuts and cilantro. (TIP: For an extra-nutty crunch, toast peanuts in a hot dry pan!) Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
Shrimp are fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
