It’s simple to make and delicious to eat this shrimp lo mein! If you’d want more sauce, you can double it. You can thin the sauce out by adding more water or broth. For a total of around 4 cups of vegetables, use whichever combination you prefer. Alternatively mixing them together, you can also serve the shrimp and vegetables over the noodles.

Came out deliciously! My bf loved it. Will definitely make again
This was a hit!!!!!!!!!! I didn’t use oyster sauce as I thought it wouldn’t suit us. But I tried it with orange sauce and sweet and sour stir fry sauce. It was so delicious. My youngest (3) had a blast eating the noodles and she rarely eats food. I have to admit I took seconds!
Added two teaspoons of sesame oil to the sauce mixture.
It was really good! I did cook everything longer which made it seem more creamy for me!
It was easy peasy queasy & not at all bland to me. However, I added thawed frozen veggies & lil black pepper!!! My hubby loves it!!!!
I added garlic and also made more sauce. Very good though!
I used everything but the oyster sauce. I also added a ton of fresh ginger and fresh garlic. It’s a good sauce, and the lo mein looks and tastes authentic.
I will definitely make it again! Delicious
Good flavor. Marinated shrimp in teriyaki sauce for several hours. I doubled the amt of shrimp and doubled the sauce for my family. Used dried, wide lo mein noodles.
Loved it! Added extra fresh ginger, garlic and only used one Tablespoon on corn starch thanks so much for sharing!??
I made some changes I added more water added salsa verde at the end. It came out delicious. I will make it again switch up the vegetables a bit

I liked it very much. I didn’t give 5 stars because I did have to add more flavor to the sauce. I used Lo Mein noodles instead of pasta and it came out great! I will definitely make it again!!
My husband and I love this recipe! So good!
a very good recipe.I would and will be making again.I gave it a 5 star rating because you can leave it the way it is.Or you can add your own things and call it your own. lol I made rice noodles and it was great.
This recipe was ok for me due to the fact that because sugar was omitted it made the meal a bit on the salty side. I suggest adding 1-2 teaspoons of brown sugar to even it out.
Made this tonight for dinner and it was delicious! I followed the sauce recipe as written except for the fact that I eyeballed the measurements and substituted organic coco amino (healthy alternative) for the soy sauce. I cooked a 16 ounce package of linguine (it seemed more fitting for a stir fry dish than angel hair but that’s just my preference) and had to add about 1/3 cup of water at the end to deglaze the pan because my sauce seemed to stick to the bottom of my nonstick pan (weird). Due to what I had on hand, I used about 5 cloves of garlic, one red bell pepper, two carrots, half an onion, two stalks of celery, 2 cups of broccoli florets, half of a bunch of green onion (just the green part), and one pound of shrimp. I did season the veggies while they were cooking with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and an extra splash of the coco amino. This recipe was easy to prep and quick to cook. Perfect for a week night!! I’d definitely make this again! Thanks for the recipe!
First time making a chinese type dish and we loved it! Husband said was better than what we get from chinese restaurant. Only thing I did diff was no oyster sauce because I couldn’t find it in my grocery store and no snap peas because my kids don’t like them. I also used a bag of frozen cooked shrimp to be a little quicker. Still came out fabulous and WILL make it again with the egg roll recipe I also found here that was great. Thanks!
Love it ! Great recipe, quick and delicious
I thought this was a tasty dish. The sauce tasted differently from what I was expecting, but I still really enjoyed it. I did doubled the sauce although I am not sure if I really needed too. The amount written in the recipe may actually be enough. I wasn’t able to find snap peas so I substituted shredded carrots in its place. In the future I will use less celery and less green peppers and instead add more onions and broccoli and maybe even the snap peas if I can find them. I used lo mein noodles from an Asian grocery store. They added the perfect touch.
I followed the recipe exactly but it was very blah. Something missing, maybe the MSG!
