Spicy Cauliflower, Bok Choy, and Shrimp Stir-Fry with Coconut image

A stir-fry is great for a quick weeknight dinner -- to make the meal even speedier, cut the cauliflower and bok choy ahead of time, devein and peel the shrimp, and have it all ready to go in the refrigerator. You could serve this dish over brown rice, but the starchlike texture of the cauliflower makes it more than able to stand alone.

1 tablespoon safflower oil
1/4 large head cauliflower, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1/2 large head bok choy, trimmed and sliced into 1-inch strips (about 8 ounces)
1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

SPICY SHRIMP AND BOK CHOY STIR FRY (SOUTH BEACH DIET PHASE 1)



Spicy Shrimp and Bok Choy Stir Fry (South Beach Diet Phase 1) image

From new book. Haven't tried. Chili-garlic sauce is a common Asian ingredient that brings a tangy hot flavor to any dish. It can be used both for cooking and as a condiment when you want a little extra heat. Look for brands with no sugar added in the Asian section of the supermarket.
