Shrimp And Udon Stir Fry - Stir Fry Udon Noodles with Shrimp, Onion And Bell Pepper.

Hi everyone, welcome to Cook Stacey Cook. Today we are making shrimp and udon stir-fry. This dish combines juicy and succulent shrimp with soft, slightly chewy udon in a rich, savory and umami-packed sauce. Every strain of udon is wrapped in this delicious sauce. The sauce also elevates the natural sweetness of the shrimp, making it so much more tasty. This is a great recipe for a simple yet very satisfying meal. Let me show you how I make it. We will start by finely mincing 2 cloves of garlic and cutting 2 green onions into 2-inch sections. Keep the pieces from the stem part and the leafy part separate because we will use them at different times during cooking. Next, cut half of an onion into large strips and cut half of a bell pepper into large strips. For the shrimp, I'm using shrimp that comes already peeled and deveined. Rinse it with cold water and pat it dry. Then marinate it with salt, a little bit of sugar, white pepper powder, and corn starch. Mix it evenly and then mixing a touch of sesame oil. The last ingredient we need is some udon. Udon usually comes frozen like this. You can find it in most major grocery stores. Now we are ready to cook. We will start by cooking the udon. Bring a pot of water to a boil and then add the frozen udon. Cook the udon until the water comes back to a boil. Then we can remove it from the pan. Next, preheat the pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add some oil to the pan and then add the onion and bell pepper strips. Quickly give it a few quick toss so that it's evenly coated with oil. Then season it with a little bit of sugar and salt. Stir-fry the onion and bell pepper strips for a total of 90 seconds. Then remove it from the pan. Using the remaining oil, we will pan-fry the shrimp. Add the shrimp and the stem part of the green onion to the pan and spread the shrimp out. Let the shrimp pan-fry until the bottom is slightly golden brown. Then turn it over to pan-fry the other side. When both sides are slightly golden brown, we can remove everything from the pan. Add a little more oil to the pan if needed and we will stir-fry the udon next. Add the minced garlic to the pan and let it sizzle in the oil briefly. Then add the udon and stir-fry until it is hot. Once the udon is hot, season it with some soy sauce, oyster sauce, and dark soy sauce. Continue to stir-fry the udon until the color looks even. Then add some water to the pan and we will braise the udon for one minute. This step allows the flavor from the sauce to penetrate deep into the udon. After braising the udon for one minute, we can add the shrimp, the onion, and the bell pepper back to the pan. Also add the leafy part of the green onion, some crushed black pepper, and a touch of sesame oil at this time. Now all there is left to do is give it a few quick toss to mix everything together and we are done. This shrimp and udon stir-fry is easy to make and very delicious. It's a great recipe for a quick dinner and I hope you will give it a try soon. If you find today's video useful, please share it with your friends and family.
