I used Skinny Noodles Shirataki Spinach Fettuccine for this recipe. It takes time to prepare them properly: rinse well, blanch and dry fry.. but it’s definitely worth it! Do the prep work right to make sure your noodles won’t come out wet. Dry frying will make them receptive to whatever sauce you are going to add them to.
If you are also looking for a diabetic-friendly, low carb pasta substitute, these Shirataki noodles are perfect as they have zero glycemic load.
