Shrimp lo mein: Easy, delicious, and classic. “But,” the discerning reader of these descriptions cries out, “you say that for all your meals.” True, and have we lied yet? But this meal's got the mantra more than others; after all, shrimp lo mein is a staple food of any Chinese joint, delivery or high end. This particular version is as easy as throwing things in a pan. (Although we recommend a bit more care than lobbing your shrimp at your stove.) And delicious?!? Who are we kidding!?! Garlic-y perfect pasta with a touch of heat surrounded by succulent shrimp… this is lo mein nirvana. Chant our mantra with us, as another simple and tasty dinner delivers.
