Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 baby bok choy
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 pound shiitake mushrooms
  • 1- inch fresh ginger knob
  • ½ cup chicken stock or vegetable stock
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1   tablespoon mirin
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • pounds Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1 teaspoon salt Kosher salt and freshly ground
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper Kosher salt and freshly ground

Instructions

  1. Cut the bok choy crosswise into 1⁄2-inch slices, keeping the leaves and stalks separate.
  2. Mince the garlic. Stem the shiitakes and thinly slice the caps. Peel and mince the ginger.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the stock, cornstarch, and mirin.
  4. In a large nonstick pan, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the bok choy stalks and shiitakes, spreading into a single layer. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook without moving until starting to brown on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir and cook until softening, 2 to 3 minutes.
  5. Add the crushed red pepper, garlic, ginger, and bok choy leaves and stir to combine. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  6. Season the shrimp on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Add to the vegetables and cook until just pink, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  7. Push all the ingredients to the outer edges of the pan. Pour the stock mixture into the center, and simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir everything together to combine and coat, then remove the pan from the heat. Taste the stir-fry and add salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Serve over rice if desired (not included in nutritional information).

Notes

  • *For whole30 or paleo replace cornstarch with arrow root powder, and mirin with rice vinegar.
