Instructions
Cooking the Noodles

Combining Noodles and Sauce
- Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, followed by soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Toss everything together to ensure the noodles are evenly coated.
Reintroducing Steak and Shrimp
- Return the cooked steak and shrimp to the skillet. Mix everything together with the noodles and vegetables, stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until thoroughly combined.
Seasoning
- Season your stir-fry with salt and pepper to your liking.
Garnishing and Serving

Notes
Prep all ingredients before you start cooking for the best results. Consider marinating the steak in soy sauce for 30 minutes for added tenderness. Feel free to customize with additional vegetables or add heat with chili sauce.
