Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound snow peas or sugar snap peas, strings and stems removed
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons vegetable, peanut or canola oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
3 large garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
3 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths, dark green parts separated

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the snow peas or sugar snap peas. Boil 30 seconds, and transfer immediately to the ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, drain and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of the corn starch, 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the rice wine or sherry, 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar. Add the shrimp, and stir together to coat.
  • Place the remaining corn starch, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, sesame oil and sugar in another bowl. Add the stock, and stir together well. Set aside.
  • Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates immediately upon contact. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, and turn the heat to medium. Add the ginger and garlic, and stir together for about 20 seconds, then add the red pepper and the white and light green parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for two to three minutes, until the pepper begins to soften. Stir to the side of the pan. Add the remaining oil and the shrimp. Cook, stirring, for two minutes, stir in the snow peas or snap peas, and continue to stir-fry for another two or three minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Give the sauce a stir, and add it to the pan along with the dark green ends of the scallions. Stir everything together with the sauce until the shrimp and vegetables are lightly glazed. Serve hot, with rice.

SHRIMP AND BELL PEPPER STIR FRY

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
5 scallions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup packed curly kale, stemmed and hand torn
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, rice wine vinegar, ginger and crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or wok over high heat. Add the bell peppers and stir until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Scoot the peppers to the edge of the pan, creating an opening in the center.
  • Add the shrimp in a single layer to the center of the pan and cook until just beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add three-quarters of your scallions (hold back the rest for garnishing at the end) and stir everything together.
  • Add the kale and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Next, pour in the sauce and allow it to bubble and thicken in the pan while stirring, about 1 minute. The sauce should really cling to the shrimp and vegetables. Remove from the heat.
  • Sprinkle everything with the cilantro and mint and stir to combine. Garnish with more red pepper flakes and the remaining scallions before serving.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: Save time by chopping the vegetables and prepping the sauce ingredients before you start cooking.
  • Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A wok or large skillet will provide ample space for stir-frying and prevent overcrowding.
  • High Heat: Stir-frying requires high heat to quickly cook the ingredients and maintain their texture. Ensure your burner or wok is adequately preheated before adding the ingredients.
  • Stir Constantly: Stirring the ingredients continuously ensures even cooking and prevents them from sticking to the pan.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Avoid overcrowding the pan with ingredients, as this will result in steaming rather than stir-frying. Cook in batches if necessary.
  • Sauce Consistency: Adjust the amount of water or broth in the sauce to achieve your desired consistency. For a thicker sauce, use less liquid; for a thinner sauce, add more.
  • Serve Immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking to maintain their vibrant colors, crispness, and flavors.
