Great!
This is an easy and very tasty recipe not to mention healthy! I served it with romaine salad with Man darins and Asian Dressing for a wonderful weeknight dinner.
Ehhhh
It was good, but not nearly as good as I expected. The shrimp had much more flavor from the Chili-Garlic Shrimp with Coconut Milk and Sugar Snap Peas. When I put them in the mixture above it really took something away from it. Won't make again but will try the coconut milk recipe.
Good, Easy Weeknight Meal
To make this faster, I stir-fried all the veggies while the noodles soaked.Then Mixed it all together and will make again. I could not find brown rice noodles, so I used the white.
Good spicy recipe
Made it exactly as called for in recipe but with regular rice noodles. Very tasty. Love the kick from the jalapeño.
Good starter recipe
This is a great basic recipe. Try it once and then decide what else should go in to make it pop for your taste buds. We added some mushrooms this time, just because we had them. My husband loves everything fiery hot, and was thinking some of that red pepper relish would be great in the dish. Maybe adding some chicken broth to make it a bit like a soup would be tasty too? Cilantro and some citrus juice/rind thrown on right before you eat would be great too.
Fast and very tasty
