Ingredients
- 500 grams Shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 200 grams Broccoli florets
- 1 Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 Carrot, julienned
- 100 grams Snap peas
- 3 Green onions, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Lime, juiced
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the shrimp: ensure they are fully peeled, deveined, and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring quickly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4
Increase the heat to high, add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer, and allow them to cook for about 2 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets, sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snap peas. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5-7 minutes or until they are just crisp-tender.
Step 6
Return the shrimp to the skillet and add chopped green onions.
Step 7
Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the shrimp and vegetables, stirring well to ensure everything is coated.
Step 8
Season the stir-fry with black pepper and lime juice, giving everything a final toss to combine.
Step 9
Cook for an additional minute to heat the ingredients thoroughly and allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 10
Remove from heat and serve the stir-fry immediately, either on its own or over a bed of your favorite whole grains like quinoa or brown rice.
