- 1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions
- Cook the noodles: Prepare the udon noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain them well and set aside to keep warm.
- Heat the oil: In a large skillet or wok, warm the vegetable oil over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the proteins and vegetables.
- Cook the steak: Add the thinly sliced flank steak to the hot skillet and sear it for 2-3 minutes until it browns nicely. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.
- Cook the shrimp: In the same skillet, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove them and set aside with the steak.
- Sauté the vegetables: Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp, maintaining a slight crunch.
- Add aromatics: Stir in the chopped green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and well combined with the vegetables.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, and honey until smooth.
- Combine proteins and sauce: Return the cooked steak and shrimp to the skillet, pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over everything, and stir thoroughly to coat all ingredients.
- Add noodles: Incorporate the cooked udon noodles into the skillet and toss all components together until the noodles are well coated and heated through.
- Serve: Garnish with sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute flank steak with sirloin or ribeye for a different texture.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a splash of sriracha to the sauce.
- If you prefer, use gluten-free soy sauce to make this recipe gluten-free.
- Use fresh udon noodles for a softer texture, or dried noodles for convenience.
- Sesame seeds add a nice crunch and nuttiness but can be omitted for allergies.
