Let’s Dish: About This Ramen

Main Ingredients: Ramen noodles, shrimp, red bell pepper, mushrooms, broccoli, onion, soy sauce, garlic, ginger.
Quick Steps: Cook ramen, stir-fry shrimp, then vegetables, toss with sauce and noodles, and serve.
Total Time & Yield: 30 minutes, serves 6.

Why This Recipe

This shrimp ramen recipe delivers a balanced, fresh flavor that sets it apart from others.

Unlike recipes that use pre-packaged ramen seasoning or heavy, butter-based broths, ours relies on a lighter, more authentic soy-based sauce that enhances the natural sweetness of shrimp.

You’ll also enjoy the addition of broccoli and mushrooms, offering more texture and nutrition compared to other recipes that rely on just noodles and shrimp.

Where many recipes keep it simple with just garlic or ginger, we take it up a notch by incorporating both along with fresh vegetables to create layers of flavor that you won’t find in quick, shortcut recipes. This gives the dish a home-cooked richness without overwhelming the natural flavors of the shrimp

Shrimp With Ramen Ingredients

Shrimp With Ramen raw ingredients that are labeled

The combination of the noodles, shrimp, and seasonings creates a delicious savory taste that is like no other.

The garlic and soy sauce help to enhance the flavors of each ingredient, making them perfectly balanced.

The texture of the shrimp, along with the ramen noodles and the crunch of the fresh veggies, makes for an enjoyable yet fulfilling meal.

You’ll need:

For The Sauce:

¼ cup of regular soy sauce
2 tablespoons of dark soy sauce
3 tablespoons of hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons of seasoned rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
1 tablespoon of minced garlic
1 tablespoon of grated ginger
1 teaspoon of oyster sauce
1 teaspoon of sriracha
¼ teaspoon of white ground pepper

For The Shrimp And Noodles:

3 (3-ounce) packages of ramen noodles (do not use the flavor packets)
3 tablespoons of canola oil, divided into 1 tablespoon and 2 tablespoons
1 pound of medium (51-60 size) shrimp (peeled, deveined, and tails removed)

For The Vegetables:

1 cup of diced red bell pepper
1 cup of sliced baby portabella mushrooms
1 cup of broccoli florets, broken into small bite-sized pieces
½ cup of diced yellow onion
2 tablespoons of sliced scallions (green onions), optional garnish
2 teaspoons of toasted sesame seeds, optional garnish

Substitutions And Additions

PEPPERS: You can substitute yellow or green bell peppers for red pepper in this stir fry.

SOY SAUCE: Dark soy sauce is different from standard soy sauce. It is thicker and has a deeper and richer flavor. You can omit it and just use all standard soy sauce if desired; however, your sauce will not be quite as rich.

SRIRACHA: You can substitute 1 teaspoon of hot sauce or ½ teaspoon of chili oil for the sriracha.

VEGGIES: You can add other veggies that you enjoy in your stir fry recipes. Try snow peas, bok choy, bean sprouts, or water chestnuts.

MUSHROOMS: Use white button mushrooms or baby Bella mushrooms for this recipe. Both options will cook the same and taste great. If your grocery store sells them pre-sliced, this will save some prep time for you..

OIL: You can use peanut, vegetable, or grapeseed oil for this easy recipe. You want to use a neutral oil with a higher smoke point since you are cooking at such a high heat.

How To Make This Shrimp With Ramen Recipe

STEP ONE: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, hoisin sauce, seasoned rice wine vinegar, granulated sugar, minced garlic, grated garlic, oyster sauce, sriracha, and white ground pepper. Set aside.

STEP TWO: In a 3 to 4-quart saucepot, over medium-high heat, bring 8 cups of water to a boil.

Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook ramen noodles for two to three minutes or just until the noodles begin to soften.

Drain and rinse the noodles in cool water to stop the cooking process. Set the noodles aside.

You don’t need the seasoning packet that comes in the ramen packages. You can either toss them or keep them for another recipe in the future.

STEP THREE: In a large 10 to 12-inch skillet, over medium-high heat, add one tablespoon of the canola oil.

STEP FOUR: Add the shrimp to the hot skillet and cook for three to four minutes or just until pink.

Do not overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate to set aside.

If you are using shrimp that has been frozen, be sure that you thaw them completely according to the package directions. Thoroughly pat them dry with a paper towel before adding them to the hot skillet.

STEP FIVE: Add the remaining two tablespoons of canola oil to the skillet and add the diced red bell pepper, sliced mushrooms, broccoli florets, and diced yellow onion.

When dicing your red bell pepper and yellow onions, try to keep them roughly the same size. Your broccoli florets need to be approximately the same size as well. This ensures that your vegetables cook at the same rate.

Cook the vegetables for five to six minutes or until tender.

STEP SIX: Turn the heat down to medium and add the cooked shrimp, noodles, and sauce to the skillet with the vegetables.

STEP SEVEN: Using tongs, toss the vegetables, shrimp, noodles, and sauce together and cook for an additional one to two minutes.

Storage

IN THE FRIDGE: You will need to note that the longer the noodles sit, the more they will absorb the sauce and become soft.

You can store any leftovers in an airtight container, in the refrigerator, for up to two days.

IN THE FREEZER: We don’t recommend freezing this dish, especially if you are using shrimp that were previously frozen.
