Method

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Mince garlic and ginger, juice the lime, and slice the red onion and bell pepper.

2

Add pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain and set aside.

3

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add red onion and bell pepper; sauté for 3 minutes until softened.

4

Stir in garlic and ginger, cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until opaque and cooked through.

5

Pour in coconut milk and fish sauce. Stir in lime juice and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for 2 minutes.

6

Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. If sauce is too thick, add pasta water 2–3 tbsp at a time until desired consistency is reached.

7

Transfer to bowls or plates. Garnish with green onion, sesame seeds, and a lime wedge.
