Lime Shrimp Rice Noodles
Lime and chopped peanuts finish rice noodles with shrimp and softened cabbage. It is a dinner where preparation makes the final pan stage simpler: shred the cabbage, drain the noodles and dry the thawed shrimp first. Add the peanuts at serving for crunch. They are a listed allergen-bearing ingredient, not an optional detail to ignore when choosing the dish.
