Ingredients

  • 3 large zucchini
  • ¼ cup chicken stock
  • 2 ½ tablespoons tamarind paste
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoons Asian chile pepper sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 12 ounces skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 8 ounces peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons water, or as needed (Optional)
  • 3 cups bean sprouts, divided
  • 6 green onions, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil

Directions

Step 1
Make zucchini noodles using a spiralizer.

Step 2
Whisk chicken stock, tamarind paste, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chile pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lime juice, and sugar together in a small bowl to make a smooth sauce.

Step 3
Heat sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add chicken and shrimp; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 4
Push chicken and shrimp to the sides of the wok to make a space in the center. Pour eggs and scramble until firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Add zucchini noodles and sauce; cook and stir, adding water if needed, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups bean sprouts and green onions; cook and stir until combined, 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 5
Remove wok from heat and sprinkle peanuts over noodles. Serve garnished with remaining 1 cup bean sprouts and fresh basil.
