Ingredients
  

For the Noodles:
  • 2 lbs fresh Taiwanese-style yellow oil noodles
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 10 cloves garlic minced
  • 2.5 tablespoons oyster sauce preferably Lee Kum Kee brand
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
For the Shrimp:
  • 10 oz shrimp shell-on, cleaned
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 0.5 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 0.5 teaspoon sugar for shrimp marinade
  • 1 tablespoon scallion chopped
  • 1 pinch salt to taste

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Skillet or Wok
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Measuring spoons
  • Slotted spoon

Method
 

Cooking Instructions:
  1. Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fresh Taiwanese-style yellow oil noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain the noodles and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 10 cloves of minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to let the garlic brown too much, as it can turn bitter.
  3. Stir in 2 1/2 tablespoons of oyster sauce and 1 tablespoon of sugar to the skillet. Mix well, allowing the sauce to simmer for a minute to meld the flavors.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the shrimp with 1 clove of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated shrimp. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the garlic butter sauce. Toss to coat the noodles thoroughly. Then, gently fold in the cooked shrimp and 3 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until well combined.
  6. Transfer the Shrimp Garlic Noodles to serving plates. Sprinkle with chopped scallions and an additional pinch of salt if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Allow the Shrimp Garlic Noodles to cool to room temperature before storing.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Add a splash of water or broth when reheating to prevent drying out.
