Shrimp Stir-Fry
Shrimp Stir-Fry
Using large shrimp helps avoid over cooking.
This recipe is even great with boneless chicken breast in place of the Shrimp!
The flavor of sesame oil goes away while cooking by adding more at the end along with some toasted sesame seeds adds flavor and some crunch.
2 Green Onions (greens only) Plus extra Greens for garnish
1 tsp Red Curry Paste
1 tsp Ground Ginger
2 tsp Toasted Sesame Oil
