Ingredients
- 500 grams prawns, peeled and deveined
- 60 ml coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup snow peas
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the peeled and deveined prawns with coconut aminos, sesame oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Stir well to coat and let marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated prawns and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of coconut oil.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, snow peas, and julienned carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked prawns to the pan with the vegetables.
Add the chopped green onions, red chili flakes, and black pepper to the pan. Stir everything together for another 2 minutes to combine the flavors.
Serve hot, garnished with additional green onions if desired.
