Chile-Lime Veggie Noodles

Made this meal exactly following the directions. It was good, had nice flavor from the limes and a satisfying crunch from the cabbage. The eggs were new for me and worked well this way! It's a good not so special healthy weeknight meal. If you like a bit of kick try finding Shichimi. It's a blended spice from Japan. I sprinkle it on all of my Asian stir-fries just before eating. It's a blend of chili pepper, orange peel, black and white sesame seeds, Japanese pepper, ginger, and seaweed. It's awesome! Took this dish to another level.

Ingredients :
  • 1 bunch Scallions, sliced, divided
  • 6 Thinly sliced green cabbage
  • 2 Red, orange or yellow bell peppers, sliced
  • 3 cups Sliced shiitake mushroom caps
  • 4 Large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp. Canola oil
  • 1 tbsp. Light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp. Chile-garlic sauce, or to taste
  • 3 tbsp. Reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. Lime juice
  • 1 tsp. Freshly grated lime zest
  • 1/2 cup Dry sherry
  • 8 oz. Whole-wheat spaghetti or lo mein noodles
Directions :
  1. Cook spaghetti (or noodles) according to package directions. Drain.
  2. Combine sherry, lime zest and juice, soy sauce, chile-garlic sauce, and brown sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Heat a 14-inch flat-bottom wok over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add eggs and tilt wok to create an omelet. Cook until set, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Turn the omelet over and cook 30 seconds more. Remove to a clean cutting board and cut into strips.
  4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, mushrooms and bell peppers to the wok; stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add cabbage. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of the scallions for garnish and add the rest to the wok.
  5. Stir-fry until all the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 2 minutes more. Add the chile-lime sauce and the noodles; toss to coat. Add the omelet strips and stir-fry until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Serve sprinkled with the reserved scallions.
