Number Of Ingredients 13

6 oz rice noodles
1 lb broccoli florets

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I often double the recipe so I have leftovers for lunch the next day.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The shrimp were tough and the sauce was bland.

This was my first time making caramelized chili shrimp and it turned out great! The sauce was a little spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it.

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try again with a shorter cooking time.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought chili sauce and it worked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
