Servings: persons

8 ounces uncooked spaghetti or 8 ounces linguine, broken in half
1 lb shrimp or 6 chicken thighs
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 orange bell pepper
8 ounces mushrooms, slice (or 16 ounces)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (we used around 1-1 1/2 tablespoons)
3/4 cup sliced green onion
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
all purpose seasoning (for your shrimp)

1
Cook pasta.
2
While pasta cooks, in a skillet (deep enough to hold liquid and pasta later on) put a little olive oil and throw in your bell peppers and mushrooms. Cook this down to your liking, and set them aside on a plate.
3
Add some more olive oil to your skillet and throw your shrimp and garlic inches Season your shrimp how you like them, I like to add a little Tony's Chachere's creole seasoning but you can do a basic all purpose seasoning on them. After cooked, set this aside.
4
In the same pan add the soy sauce, broth, red peppers, mushrooms, cornstarch (make sure you mix the cornstarch and sherry together with a fork in a separate bowl before adding) Keep stirring till mixture starts to thicken and bubble. I added an extra half tablespoon because I wanted my sauce a little thicker. Keep stirring constantly to make sure it doesn't burn.
5
Once thickened add vinegar and crushed red pepper.
6
Take off heat, add pasta, shrimp, sesame seeds. Toss well to combine all ingredients.
