Rice Noodle Shrimp

We enjoyed this one-dish meal from Fresh20.com but we prefer a bit more kick in the broth, and more broth than noodles, so I've modified the recipe below (will try it this way next time).

Ingredients:
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/2 onion, sliced into long pieces
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 6 c chicken broth
  • 1 lb raw shrimp, peeled, tail off
  • 4 oz noodles
  • 3 c broccoli florets
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint, chiffonade
  • black pepper to taste
Instructions:
  1. In a large pot heat the oil and add the garlic, jalapeno and onion. Saute until onions are translucent and then add the ginger, cumin, chili powder, red pepper, and salt.
  2. Pour in the broth and bring to boil.
  3. Turn off the heat, add shrimp, noodles and broccoli. Cover and let sit for 8 minutes.
  4. Add lime juice, soy sauce and mint. Stir to combine and serve!
PS - Fresh20 recommends a side of sliced mango, which is a great flavor combination. We added chopped mint on it too.
