  3. Add garlic and ginger, stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add cooked noodles and return the shrimp to the pan.
  5. Pour in soy sauce, sesame oil, and brown sugar or honey. Add chili flakes if using. Toss everything to coat evenly.
  6. Cook for 2–3 more minutes until everything is heated through. Serve immediately with optional garnishes like lime, sesame seeds, or scallions.

Notes

Customize with your favorite veggies or proteins like chicken or tofu. Cook shrimp just until pink to avoid rubbery texture. Leftovers keep well for up to 3 days in the fridge.
