Indulge in a delightful fusion of flavours with this Ribeye with Shrimp Lo Mein recipe!

Ingredients

4
  • 4 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
  • 200g medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 250g lo mein noodles
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1

Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2

Season the ribeye steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.

3

In a large skillet or cast iron pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the ribeye steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Remove from the pan and let rest.

4

In the same pan, add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Add shrimp and cook until pink, about 2-3 minutes.

5

Add the bell pepper and broccoli to the pan and stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

6

Stir in the cooked lo mein noodles, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Toss to combine and heat through.

7

Slice the rested ribeye steaks and serve alongside the shrimp lo mein, garnished with chopped spring onions.

Kitchen Tools

  • Large skillet or cast iron pan
  • Pot for cooking noodles
  • Tongs
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife

Pro Tips

Allow the ribeye to rest for at least 5 minutes after cooking to enhance its juiciness.
Feel free to substitute shrimp with chicken or tofu for a variation.
Adjust the amount of sauce based on your preference for a more saucy dish.

Troubleshooting

If the shrimp is rubbery, it may have been overcooked; aim for just until pink.
For overly greasy lo mein, use less oil next time or drain excess after cooking.

Recipe Variations

Substitute the ribeye with sirloin or flank steak for a different flavour.
Make it a vegetarian dish by omitting the protein and adding more vegetables.
Try different sauces like teriyaki or sweet and sour for a new twist.

Healthy Alternatives

Use whole grain lo mein noodles or zucchini noodles for a healthier option.
Opt for low-sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium intake.
Add more vegetables such as carrots or snap peas for added nutrients.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with a side salad for a complete meal.
Serve with steamed bok choy for an Asian-inspired addition.
Offer a light dipping sauce on the side.
