SESAME SHRIMP STIR-FRY



Sesame Shrimp Stir-Fry image

Yesterday's recipe was so delicious I had to find another version to satisfy the craving. Quick and easy and hits the spot. Recipe courtesy of Family Circle All-Time Favorite Recipes. I made brown rice in my rice cooker instead of messing with precooked rice. The rice cooker makes perfect rice every time. I did substitute frozen green beans for the sugar snap peas, and I still really enjoyed it.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your stir-fry will taste. Look for crisp vegetables, plump shrimp, and flavorful sauces.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When stir-frying, it's important not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the vegetables and shrimp from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam than fry.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring constantly is essential for even cooking and to prevent the food from sticking to the pan.
  • Use a high heat: Stir-fries are cooked over high heat, so make sure your burner is turned up high enough. This will help to sear the shrimp and vegetables and give them a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Add the sauce at the end: The sauce is the finishing touch to your stir-fry. Add it at the end of the cooking process, so that it doesn't overcook and lose its flavor.

Conclusion:

Carrot Sesame Shrimp Stir-Fry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. With its colorful vegetables, plump shrimp, and flavorful sauce, this stir-fry is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this Carrot Sesame Shrimp Stir-Fry a try. You won't be disappointed!
