Description

Ingredients

• For the stir fry:
• 1 and ¼ lbs large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 3 cups of mixed vegetables (I used snow peas and sliced bell peppers)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 2 packages of Veetee Dine In Wholegrain Brown Rice, prepared according to package directions
• Optional garnishes: sliced green onions and sesame seeds
• For the sauce:
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• ½ cup water
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons minced ginger
• 1 tablespoon of honey
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Directions

• For the sauce:
• Place the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, honey and sesame oil in a small pot over medium high heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Turn up heat to high and bring to a boil.
• Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the sauce and boil for 1-2 minutes or until sauce has thickened. Set sauce aside.
• For the stir fry:
• Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until vegetables have started to brown and soften. Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook, until water has evaporated. When your vegetables are crisp tender remove them from the pan and set aside.
• Wipe out the pan. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in the pan over high heat.
• Place the shrimp in the pan and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until just cooked through (shrimp should be pink and opaque).
• Add the vegetables back to the pan. Pour the sauce over the top and cook for 1-2 minutes over medium high heat until warmed through.
• Serve over Veetee Dine In Wholegrain Brown Rice.
• Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired.
