  • 2 teaspoons dry sherry, if desired
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons grated gingerroot

  • 6 bok choy stems with leaves, sliced (3 cups)
  • 2 medium stalks celery, cut into diagonal slices (1 cup)

Steps

  • 1
    Beat egg white, salt, sherry and oil in medium glass or plastic bowl. Stir in shrimp. Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes but no longer than 8 hours.

    Mix broth, soy sauce, gingerroot and 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch.

    Cook noodles as directed on package; remove noodles from cooking water with tongs and drain well. Stir shrimp into boiling noodle water. Gently stir in circular motion about 2 minutes or just until shrimp are pink; drain.
  • 4
    Spray nonstick wok or 12-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat until cooking spray starts to bubble. Add green onions, bok choy and celery; stir-fry 3 minutes. Add broth mixture; cook and stir 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in noodles and shrimp; heat through.

  • Like people, shrimp come in all shapes and sizes. We've called for medium shrimp in this recipe, which provide about 31 to 35 pieces of shrimp per pound. Larger shrimp also may be used, but remember the larger the shrimp, the higher the price per pound.
  • For a refreshing change of pace, substitute imitation crab for the shrimp in this recipe.
