Ingredients

For the bowl

  • 1 pound shrimp, deveined and peeled with tails off
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • A pinch of garlic powder and smoked paprika, optional
  • 4 ounces vermicelli rice noodles, cooked per instructions on the box
  • cups thinly sliced red cabbage or lettuce
  • 2 carrots, julienned
  • ½ cucumber, sliced
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Cilantro and edamame, to serve

For the peanut sauce

  • cup peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • ½ lime, juiced
  • 2 or more tablespoons hot water, if needed

Instructions

  • Prepare the vermicelli noodles per the box instructions and set aside. In the meantime, prepare the vegetables and cook the edamame.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika (if using). Cook the shrimp for a few minutes on each side, until pink and cooked through. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine all the ingredients for the peanut sauce (except for the water), and mix until smooth and homogeneous. If the sauce is too thick, add hot water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches a pourable, dressing-like consistency.
  • Assemble the bowls; portion the rice noodles into a bowl, top with the chopped vegetables, edamame, cilantro, and shrimp, then serve with the prepared peanut sauce.
