A delightful stir-fried noodle dish featuring tender beef, succulent shrimp, and fresh vegetables, all coated in a flavorful sauce.
Soak the rice noodles in room temperature water until softened, about 20-30 minutes.
Ensure the noodles are pliable but not overly soft, as they will cook further in the wok.
Heat a wok over medium-high heat and add a splash of cooking oil.
Make sure the wok is hot before adding ingredients to achieve a good sear.
Add the minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant.
Stir constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the beef slices and shrimp, stir-frying until the beef is browned and the shrimp are pink.
Cook the proteins in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the wok.
Push the proteins to one side of the wok and pour in the beaten eggs, scrambling them until just set.
Let the eggs set slightly before stirring to create fluffy curds.
Add the softened noodles to the wok and toss to combine with the proteins and eggs.
Use tongs or chopsticks to gently separate the noodles if they stick together.
Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry until tender-crisp.
Add a splash of water to the wok to help steam the broccoli if needed.
Pour in the sauce ingredients and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Serve the stir-fried noodles hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lime if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its best.
