ONE PAN COCONUT SHRIMP & NOODLES

March 25, 2014

I don’t eat enough fish. Do you eat enough fish? Does anyone eat enough fish? We don’t eat enough fish. But then there’s the scare of eating too much fish. Like, mercury or whatever? Where is the sweet spot for how much fish to eat? We don’t reach for it very often, and I’m not sure why. Shrimp is really good for pasta or vegetables or anything. And since it’s the one seafood I do (kinda) keep in rotation, it’s I am guessing the type of seafood that doesn’t “count” like salmon. Should I be overthinking seafood and fish this much?

Andddd David just reminded me shrimp is a crustacean not a fish.

    I have several Kitche-tested suggestions to improve your recipe.

    1) Saute with a neutral oil like canola, not olive olive

    2) Mix the shrimp with salt and pepper in a bowl for 15 minutes or so in small bowl before you cook it.

    3) Sear the shrimp at high heat for at most 2 minutes and THEN add the minced garlic (would add minced ginger as well) for 1 more minute.

    4) Use lobster or clam base rather than vegetable stock. Would also add 1 tsp fish sauce. Use a lot less liqudi.

    Now you have something

    I love your recipes and your Easier Than Takeout Pad Thai has totally spoiled my husband.
    I only wish that your recipe index showed all of your recipes. I feel like I am missing something by not being able to see them all.
    Thanks!
