How to Make Shrimp Lo Mein

  1. Cook lo mein noodles according to package directions, then rinse under cold water until chilled. Toss with 2 tbsp sesame oil and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tsp rice wine, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 egg white, and 1 tbsp cornstarch. Add shrimp and marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups water, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 3 tbsp rice wine, 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt. Set aside.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp peanut oil and 1 tbsp sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add grated ginger and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  5. Add marinated shrimp to the wok and stir-fry until pink, about 2-4 minutes.
  6. Add green onions, bean sprouts, celery, bamboo shoots, and shredded carrots. Stir-fry for another minute.
  7. Add the chilled noodles to the wok and toss to combine, cooking until heated through (2-3 minutes).
  8. Pour in the prepared sauce and cook until thickened (about 30 seconds).
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy!
