Instructions

Heat 1/2 of the coconut oil in a large frying pan, over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp, garlic, and sesame seeds to the pan. Toss for about a minute, or until the color of the shrimp begins to change, and is just slightly cooked through.
Add the rest of the coconut oil, vegetables, and tamari soy. Stir fry for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are fork-tender.
Spoon into separate bowls, and garnish with red chili flakes and scallions.
