Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil a large pot of water. Add glass noodles and cook until barely tender, 4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in the same pot over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, until pink and cooked through, 3-4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add minced garlic to the pot and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in lime juice and fish sauce, stirring to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Return noodles to the pot. Toss everything together for 1 minute until coated and warm throughout.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer to a bowl. Top with chili flakes and half the cilantro-green onion mix. Taste and adjust lime juice or fish sauce.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot or warm, garnished with remaining fresh herbs.
