“We love the crispy noodles on top of this time-saving Thai dish, but roasted cashews are a wonderful complement as well.” —Wolfgang Hanau, West Palm Beach, Florida

Could not find Bok Choy at our grocers the day I prepared this dish, so substituted celery and spinach. Delicious!! Its definitely a keeper!! Also added some water chestnuts and snowpeas for extra vegetables.

This wasn't our favorite. I was glad I prepped all the veggies the night before. That was a time saver for me.

This is one of the best meals I have ever had. All the spices and flavors combined to make a gourmet dish. Second time around, I omitted the shrimp and added extra garlic. This would be just as tasty with chicken instead of shrimp. I used twice the broth both times because we like it juicy! Thank you so much to the gentleman who submitted this recipe - we'll be having it often.
