Preparation
1
Prep

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce.

  • Roughly chop peanuts. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper. Zest and quarter lime (zest one lime and quarter both for 4 servings). Roughly chop cilantro.

2
Cook Noodles

  • Once water is boiling, add noodles to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

3
Toast Peanuts

  • While noodles cook, briefly heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Add peanuts and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

4
Start Stir-Fry

  • Heat a large drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites, bell pepper, and half the garlic powder (all for 4 servings); season with salt and pepper.

  • Cook, stirring, until tender and lightly browned, 5-7 minutes. Transfer veggies to a plate. Reserve pan.

5
Finish Stir-Fry

  • Add another drizzle of oil to same pan over medium-high heat. Add pork*; season with salt and pepper. Cook, undisturbed, until browned on bottom, 3-4 minutes. Break up into pieces; cook until cooked through, 2-4 minutes more.

  • Stir in veggies, sweet soy glaze, chili sauce, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), and chili flakes to taste. Cook, stirring, until well coated, 1-2 minutes; remove from heat.

  • Rinse shrimp* under cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Swap in shrimp for pork; cook, stirring occasionally (no need to break up into pieces!), until cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Cook through the rest of this step as instructed.

6
Toss & Serve

  • Add drained noodles, a squeeze of lime juice (two squeezes for 4 servings), and a pinch of lime zest to pan; toss to coat. Season with salt.

  • Divide noodle stir-fry between shallow bowls.

  • Top with peanuts, scallion greens, and cilantro. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
