Number Of Ingredients 7

7 ounces raw shrimp, peeled
5 green onions, chopped
1 cup mushroom, sliced
1/2 carrot
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
non-fat cooking spray (butter flavor)

Steps:

  • When skillet is hot, put vegetables and soy sauce in pan, stirring often.

  • Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: This will help you save time and ensure that your stir-fry is cooked evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry your ingredients without overcrowding them.
  • Heat your skillet or wok over high heat: This will help to sear the shrimp and vegetables and prevent them from steaming.
  • Add your ingredients in stages: Start with the shrimp and cook them until they are just pink, then add the vegetables and cook them until they are tender-crisp.
  • Use a low-carb sauce: This will help to keep the dish low in carbohydrates.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served hot, so be sure to serve them right away.

Conclusion:

This low-carb shrimp stir-fry is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
