Ingredients

• 1 pound Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 1 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 large Egg (lightly beaten)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
• 3 Scallions (sliced, green and white parts separated)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 3 tablespoons of water until smooth to create a slurry. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and white parts of the scallions. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, just until they turn pink. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the chicken broth, low-sodium soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer.

Step 5

Slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce slightly thickens.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour the beaten egg into the sauce while stirring gently to create silky egg ribbons.

Step 7

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss them in the sauce until evenly coated. Cook for 1-2 minutes to ensure the shrimp are heated through.

Step 8

Garnish with the green parts of the scallions and serve immediately over steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a lighter option.
