Instructions

  1. Dry the Shrimp: Dab the shrimp with a paper towel to ensure there is no excess liquid. Set aside until ready to use.
  2. Make Teriyaki Sauce: Add the soy sauce, warmed up water, brown sugar, honey, vinegar, cornstarch, garlic, and ginger paste to a medium-sized bowl. Whisk until well combined and then set aside.
  3. Sauté the Veggies and Shrimp: Add oil to a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (you can test this by adding a splash of water and see if it sizzles!) carefully add the sliced carrot, pepper, onion, and snow peas. Saute for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to get tender. Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and then add in the shrimp in as close to a single layer as possible. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side and then mix in with the vegetables. (It’s ok if the shrimp are not completely cooked through.)
  4. Add the Sauce: Pour in the teriyaki sauce and stir until all of the vegetables and shrimp are coated in the sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve the teriyaki shrimp over white rice or cauliflower rice with sliced green onions. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Prep-Ahead Instructions: You can easily cut the veggies a day or two ahead of time and simply store them in a Ziploc bag. Mix up the sauce the day before if needed, too.
  • Storage Directions:
  • Keep leftover teriyaki shrimp in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can freeze this stir-fry recipe, but the veggies might get mushy. Be sure as little air as possible touches the food in a freezer-bag or airtight container. For the best results, warm the stir-fry back up in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Recipe Tips:
  • Nutrition information is calculated without any additional rice or cauliflower rice.
  • Save time. Grab shrimp that have already been peeled and deveined.
  • Same size. Be sure to cut the veggies evenly so they cook at a similar rate.
  • Single layer. Try not to overlap the shrimp when cooking.
  • Some like it hot. Increase the spice level with red pepper flakes, chili garlic paste, or your favorite hot sauce. 
  • Add extra. You can include as many fresh veggies as you want and really increase the nutritional value of this easy teriyaki shrimp stir fry.
