Garlic Shrimp on Angel Hair Pasta

Serves: 6

Ingredients:
  • 10 oz. angel hair pasta
  • 1 Tbs. vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp. sesame seed oil
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 3 cups fresh oyster mushrooms
  • 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 Tbs. ginger, minced
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup sherry
  • 2 Tbs. oyster sauce
  • 1 Tbs. cornstarch mixed with 1 Tbs. cold water*
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1 Tbs. orange zest
  • 1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
  • salt
Preparation:
Heat water in a large pot, adding a dash of salt, if desired. Add angel hair and cook until al dente. Drain well. Heat oils in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add broccoli, mushrooms, shrimp, garlic and ginger. Sauté for three to four minutes or until the shrimp begins to turn pink. Transfer vegetables and shrimp to a bowl or plate. Add chicken broth, sherry, oyster sauce, and cornstarch mixture to skillet and cook until thickened, just a few minutes. Meanwhile, place equal portions of cooked pasta on plates, top with shrimp and vegetables and pour thickened sauce over both. Top with cilantro, orange zest and pepper flakes.

*Cooking note:
To prevent lumps in the sauce, the cornstarch must be combined with cold water rather than hot.
