Garlic Shrimp Lo Mein with Hoisin-Soy Sauce
  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water until firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain.

  2. 2

    Whisk chicken broth, sugar, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and cornstarch together in a bowl.

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Cook and stir shrimp and garlic in the hot oil until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the centers are no longer transparent, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the prepared sauce and chopped green onions to the shrimp mixture; cook until the sauce thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Toss the cooked spaghetti with the mixture to coat the noodles with the sauce. Serve immediately.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
