These King Prawn Stir Fry Noodles are a great 15-minute dinner idea, plus they’re gluten free and dairy free. A quick and easy king prawn stir fry with tamari, garlic, ginger, honey and chilli, stir fried with gluten free noodles. The perfect midweek meal!

I am absolutely in love with these King Prawn Noodles right now. They are such a quick and easy dish to make when I get home late!
These gluten free noodles with prawns only take 15 minutes to make and are a night and light dinner.
If you already love my BBQ Prawn Kebabs, my Prawn Poke Bowls or my Gluten Free Chow Mein recipes then you have to try these shrimp noodles next.
I love making them with my homemade gluten free egg noodles but I also have some suggestions for my favourite gluten free shop-bought noodles too.
Why make this recipe?
- Super Quick: This king prawn noodle stir fry can be thrown together in less than 15 minutes, perfect for those busy nights.
- Packed with Veg: With lean king prawns and a tonne of veg, this is a really healthy and nutritious meal.
- Big Flavours: You only need a few simple ingredients for a banging, flavour-packed dish. This hits the spot perfectly.
- Gluten and Dairy Free: This easy prawn stir fry recipe is both gluten and dairy free, perfect for feeding people with multiple allergens.
Ingredients and Substitutions
To make my gluten free stir fry noodles with king prawns you will need the following:
- Raw King Prawns: You can use cooked king prawns (shrimp) if you prefer – just add them at the same time as the veg in the recipe.
- Gluten Free Noodles: I use the King Soba Brown Rice Noodles in this recipe because they are ELITE. Honestly the best gluten free noodles I’ve ever bought. ZENB gluten free noodles are also a good buy, and of course my homemade gluten free egg noodles. Any rice noodles will work in this recipe but the King Soba ones are my faves.
- Vegetables: I use a mixture of snugar snaps, tenderstem broccoli (broccolini), red pepper and spring onions (scallions/green onions). You can use any of your favourite stir fry veg. The pre-mixed supermarket bags with bean sprouts are ideal to save time.
For the gluten free stir fry sauce you will need:
- Chopped Garlic: Mince garlic, garlic paste or crushed garlic cloves would also work well.
- Chopped Ginger: You can also use a thumb-sized size piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped, or ginger paste.
- Chopped Chilli: I use pre-chopped red chilli for ease. You can chop up your own fresh chilli, using red or green chilli. Omit this if you don’t like spice.
- Tamari: I always use tamari in place of soy sauce in recipes. It’s naturally gluten free (most of the time, always double check) and I think tastes virtually the same.
- Toasted Sesame Oil: My favourite oil for stir fry dishes! This is essential for the sauce but you can use an oil like coconut oil for frying if you prefer.
- Honey: This adds a subtle sweetness to the sauce.
- Cornflour: Or corn starch in the US. Added with cold water at the end of cooking, this is naturally gluten free and helps to thicken the sauce.
How to make king prawn stir fry noodles
There’s a printable recipe card below, but here are some step-by-step photos to show you how to make my gluten free king prawn noodles:
Finely chop the spring onions, finely slice the red pepper and chop the tenderstem broccoli into smaller pieces.
Cook the noodles in boiling water (as per the pack instructions), drain and rinse with cold water. Toss in a little extra sesame oil to stop them sticking if necessary.
Mix the sauce by adding everything (except the cornflour and water) into a bowl and mixing well.
Add a little extra toasted sesame oil to a wok and place on a high heat. Once hot, add the king prawns, spring onions and a dash of extra tamari.
Stir fry for 2-4 minutes until the prawns are pink and cooked through. Remove from the pan and place back on the heat.
Add the remaining vegetables to the hot wok and pour over the sauce mixture.
Stir fry for 3-4 minutes, then add the prawns and cooked noodles to the pan. Mix the cornflour and cold water together and pour over everything.
Bring the sauce to the boil and cook for 1-2 minutes, mixing everything well, until the sauce has thickened. Serve straight away with extra chopped spring onions and chilli on top.
