Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 1 lb. raw shrimp peeled, deveined, tail off
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 4 cups mixed vegetables I used red bell pepper, broccoli, sugar snap, and carrots
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

For the sauce:

Instructions

  • Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together all the sauce ingredients until smooth. Set it aside. Make sure your vegetables are chopped, shrimp are peeled, and everything is ready to go before you start cooking. This stir-fry comes together quickly!
  • Sauté the aromatics: Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the white and light green parts of the green onions, along with the minced garlic and fresh ginger. Cook for about a minute, just until fragrant and slightly golden.
  • Cook the vegetables: Turn the heat up to medium-high and add the vegetables along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir frequently and cook until they begin to soften and get a little color on the edges.
  • Add the shrimp: Toss the shrimp into the pan and stir-fry until they’re almost cooked through and starting to turn pink. This only takes a few minutes.
  • Add the sauce: Reduce the heat slightly, pour in the prepared sauce, and stir to coat everything evenly. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens and clings nicely to the shrimp and veggies.
  • Serve and enjoy: Serve your homemade shrimp and vegetable stir fry right away with steamed white rice. Enjoy!
