Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large saucepan, bring 2 1/2 cups of water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Dissolve the chicken bouillon cubes in the boiling water until completely dissolved. (Estimated time: 1 minute)

03

Step

Add the peeled and deveined shrimp, chopped green onion, and soy sauce to the broth. Season with salt to your liking. Allow the mixture to simmer for approximately 3 minutes, or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque.

04

Step

In a small bowl, create a slurry by dissolving the cornstarch in the cold water, ensuring no lumps remain.

05

Step

Gently stir the cornstarch slurry into the simmering shrimp mixture. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency. (Estimated time: 2-3 minutes)

06

Step

Introduce the diced tomatoes and trimmed snow peas to the pan. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften slightly and the snow peas to retain a crisp-tender bite.

07

Step

Serve hot over your preferred base of ramen noodles, rice, or pasta. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.

For a richer flavor, consider using shrimp stock instead of water and bouillon.
Adjust the amount of soy sauce to your preference; some brands can be saltier than others.
Don't overcook the shrimp, as it can become rubbery. Cook just until pink and opaque.
Feel free to add other vegetables like sliced mushrooms or bell peppers for added nutrients and flavor.

    The sauce was a bit too thick for my liking, so I added a splash of water to thin it out.

    My shrimp were done in under 3 minutes, so watch carefully.

    I used vegetable broth instead of chicken bouillon to make it vegetarian-friendly.
