Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 2 medium Bell peppers (sliced into thin strips)
- 150 grams Snow peas
- 4 stalks Green onions (sliced into 1-inch pieces)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon White pepper (optional)
- 3 tablespoons Chicken stock or water
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and chicken stock or water. This will be your stir-fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the hot wok and stir fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir fry for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Add the sliced bell peppers and snow peas to the wok. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked shrimp to the wok and add the prepared stir-fry sauce. Stir everything together quickly to coat the shrimp and vegetables evenly.
Add the sesame oil, sliced green onions, and white pepper (if using). Stir fry for an additional 1 minute.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding an additional tablespoon of soy sauce if needed.
Transfer the stir fry to a serving platter. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
