🔥🔥🔥 Ingredients
For the Surf & Turf
- 8 oz sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
For the Vegetables & Noodles
- 12 oz lo mein noodles (or low-carb keto noodles)
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1 cup carrots, cut into thin sticks
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
For the Thick Savory Drip & Garnish
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, sliced
🔥🔥🔥 Instructions
1. Cook the Noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions until tender yet slightly chewy. Drain well and set aside.
2. Sear the Steak and Shrimp
Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sirloin steak and sear for 2–3 minutes, turning occasionally until browned with a flavorful crust. Transfer the steak to a plate.
Using the same hot wok, add the shrimp and cook for 1–2 minutes per side, just until they turn bright pink and opaque. Remove and set aside with the steak.
3. Stir-Fry the Vegetables
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, carrot sticks, and sliced red bell pepper to the wok. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the baby spinach and cook for another 30 seconds until just wilted.
4. Build the Thick Savory Drip
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil until completely smooth.
Pour the sauce into the wok with the vegetables and let it simmer for 1–2 minutes until it reduces into a rich, thick, glossy dark savory sauce.
5. Assemble and Drip
Return the cooked noodles, browned steak, and juicy shrimp to the wok. Toss everything together until every noodle and every piece of steak and shrimp is heavily coated in the flavorful sauce.
Transfer to serving bowls and finish with an extra massive, heavy, scroll-stopping thick glossy dark savory sauce drip straight from the wok. Garnish generously with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving immediately.
Tips for the Best Steak & Shrimp Stir-Fry Noodles
- Slice the steak into evenly sized pieces for quick, even cooking.
- Pat the shrimp dry before searing to achieve better browning.
- Cook the noodles until just al dente to prevent them from becoming soft after stir-frying.
- Add broccoli, snap peas, mushrooms, or bok choy for extra vegetables.
- Finish with a drizzle of chili oil or sriracha if you enjoy a spicy kick.
