Ingredients

  1. 10 ounces soba
  2. 1 10-ounce package frozen shelled edamame
  3. 1 clove garlic
  4. 1 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
  5. 1 1/2 teaspoons Sriracha (Asian chile sauce)
  6. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  7. Juice of 1 lime or lemon
  8. 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
  9. 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil, plus more for drizzling (optional)
  10. 1/2 pound medium or large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  11. Kosher salt
  12. 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro and/or scallions

Instructions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the soba and cook as the label directs, adding the edamame during the last 3 minutes of cooking. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain the noodles and edamame and rinse under cold water until cool.
  2. Meanwhile, puree the garlic, ginger, Sriracha, 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons water in a blender. Mix the lime juice, soy sauce and sesame oil in a small bowl.
  3. Heat the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the shrimp dry and season with salt; add to the pan and cook, turning, until just pink, 2 minutes. Add the Sriracha mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through, about 2 more minutes. Add the soy sauce mixture, noodles and edamame, herbs and the reserved cooking water and toss. Divide among bowls and drizzle with more sesame oil.

The sriracha mix seemed a little skimpy so I increased it by 1/3, I felt the flavor was lacking so I added 1 tsp of sugar and that helped but not enough. I wont make it again

Too much lemon juice. Will NOT make again.

The whole family loved it! I didn’t have any edamame in the house, so I used peas. It turned out perfect. Definitely will make this one again!

Loved it. Used Broccoli instead of edamame just because that is what I had. A little more garlic because we love garlic.

While this wasn’t amazing, it satisfied my craving for shrimp and noodles. After reading other comments, I increased most of the “flavor” ingredients and salted the noodle water. I also added some hoisin sauce. It was easy, quick, I had most of the ingredients on hand, and again it was satisfying. Not the best but I’d make it again.

While this recipe was definitely on the quieter side of flavor I thought it was a decent easy dinner night meal. Unfortunately in a pinch I couldn’t find GF soba noodles (all mine had wheat flour added so we just did it over brown rice. I think I would double all of the ingredients, minus the water, and add cornstarch to thicken up the sauce. Probably won’t be a repeat dish, but it was just fine.

I made this for dinner and I have never been so disappointed in a dish from food network. We love all the ingredients and yes, it was healthy, but it was absolutely terrible. No taste! I really can’t understand how any one can say this is delicious. I make alot of Asian dishes and none have been as bad as this one. In fact, this is the first negative comment I have ever made for any recipe.

Didnt go with the edamame, instead added broccoli slaw and tons of yellow and orange peppers, and added some fish sauce at the end. Wife doesnt like spicy but thought this was great. Will definitely make again.
