Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 heads baby bok choy
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
½ pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup sliced zucchini
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sweet vermouth
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Slice the stem ends of the bok choy off to separate the leaves. Wash and drain the leaves; discard the ends. Cut the leafy green part of the leaves from the white part, keeping both parts separated.
  • Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat; add oil. Cook and stir ginger in the hot oil for 1 minute. Add shrimp and continue cooking until they are bright pink and opaque, reducing heat as necessary to prevent burning, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir white pieces of bok choy, broccoli, zucchini, soy sauce, vermouth, brown sugar, and rice vinegar into the skillet. Cover and continue cooking until bok choy begins to soften, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Stir to coat the vegetables with the liquid. Sprinkle with cornstarch and stir until it mixes in and disappears. Top with the green pieces of bok choy, cover, and continue cooking until leaves start to wilt and the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir to coat everything with sauce. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: This will save you time and ensure that you have everything you need before you start cooking.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry the shrimp and vegetables without overcrowding them.
  • Cook the shrimp in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of shrimp, cook them in batches to prevent them from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of stir-frying.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them or they will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: A good teriyaki sauce will make all the difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Serve immediately: Teriyaki shrimp stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Teriyaki shrimp stir-fry is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With its sweet and savory flavor, teriyaki shrimp stir-fry is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
