Ingredients:

  • 1 package Oriental Ramen Noodles (approx. 3 oz/85g)
  • 1 envelope Ramen Seasoning packet (from the ramen package)
  • 6 large Shrimp, peeled and deveined (approx. 4 oz/115g)
  • 2 tablespoons Sheree's Herb Butter (or similar compound butter, 30 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil (15 ml)
  • 3 slices Onion, diced (approximately ¼ cup, 40g)
  • 1 tablespoon Roasted Garlic, minced (15g)
  • 2 teaspoons Black Pepper (10ml)
  • 2 dashes Goya Adobo Seasoning (or your preferred all-purpose seasoning blend)
  • 2 dashes Old Bay Seasoning
  • 3 dashes Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (adjust to taste)

Instructions:

  1. Dice the onion and mince the roasted garlic.
  2. Cook the ramen noodles in boiling water according to package directions, but without the seasoning packet. Drain, reserving about ½ cup (120ml) of the cooking water.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the herb butter over medium heat. Add the olive oil. Once melted, add the diced onion and minced roasted garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is transparent and softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the shrimp to the skillet with the onion and garlic. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side, depending on their size. Do not overcook the shrimp.
  5. In the saucepan with the drained noodles, add the ramen seasoning packet, black pepper, Goya Adobo seasoning, Old Bay seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir well to combine.
  6. Add the reserved noodle water to the seasoned noodles. Simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Add the cooked shrimp and the butter sauce from the skillet to the noodles. Toss gently to coat the noodles and shrimp evenly.
  8. Divide the Shrimp Scampi Ramen into two bowls and serve immediately.
