Preparation
Mise en place
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the root ends of the bok choy; thinly slice.
Cook the shrimp & vegetables
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with ½ the spices and S&P. In a large pan (non-stick if possible), heat ½ the sesame oil on medium-high. Add the shrimp and garlic. Cook, 1 to 2 min. on one side, until partially cooked. Flip and add the bok choy and carrots. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the shrimp* are opaque and cooked through and the vegetables are beginning to soften.
Boil the noodles
Meanwhile, add the noodles to the pot of boiling water; stir gently to separate. Boil, 5 to 7 min., until al dente. Drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Make the sauce
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the pineapple chili sauce, ponzu, remaining sesame oil and spices, and pepper.
Make the stir-fry & serve
To the pan of shrimp and vegetables, add the noodles and sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until coated and combined. Divide the stir-fry between your bowls. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking shellfish to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
