A couple of weeks ago I was at a friends BBQ where I was asked to bring a "spicy" side, from a host who has a somewhat unhealthy addiction to all things Asian food. All things Asian food. I did a quick Google search and this Food Network recipe appeared, simple enough. It was paired with Omaha steaks our other host decided to grill up (they're a strange pair), and worked well with some roasted vegetable. I decided to make it again at home but this time with shrimp as the protein and a few other tweaks to the noodles, mainly a little more spice.  

The dish is good as a side or a meal (I made a batch for lunches this week), depending on your tolerance to spice you can adjust the amount of serrano peppers you include, seeds or not - but I've found the combination below is a good balance of the dressing and bite of the pepper.
