Ingredients
Scale
Protein
- 8 oz sirloin or ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 8 oz shrimp, peeled and deveined
Noodles
- 8 oz egg noodles (or any noodles of choice)
Sauce and Seasoning
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Red pepper flakes, optional, to taste
Garnish
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to prevent overcooking during stir-frying.
- Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet or wok, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, stirring continuously until fragrant but not browned.
- Cook Steak: Season the thinly sliced steak with salt and pepper. Add the steak slices to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness, typically 3-4 minutes. Remove steak from skillet and set aside.
- Cook Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove shrimp from the skillet and set aside with the steak.
- Combine Noodles and Sauce: Add the cooked noodles to the same skillet. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Toss the noodles well to coat evenly and heat through for about 1-2 minutes.
- Reintroduce Protein: Return the cooked steak and shrimp to the skillet. Toss everything together carefully and cook for an additional 2 minutes so the flavors meld. Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired for a bit of heat.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with the sliced green onions. Serve immediately while hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute the egg noodles with rice noodles or any preferred noodle type.
- For extra vegetables, feel free to add bell peppers, snap peas, or carrots during the noodle toss step.
- If you prefer less oil, reduce the butter quantity slightly or substitute with a light cooking oil.
- Adjust the amount of soy and oyster sauce to taste depending on your salt preference.
- To make this dish gluten-free, use gluten-free soy sauce and oyster sauce alternatives.
