Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 1 cup snap peas, trimmed
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 whole lime, juiced
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly and let it marinate while you prep the vegetables.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, and snap peas. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, until they are tender-crisp.
Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the marinated shrimp and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Return the vegetables to the skillet with the shrimp. Pour the coconut aminos and lime juice over the top and toss everything together, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and mix in the remaining sesame oil.
Garnish with sliced green onions before serving. Serve immediately.
