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.
Tip
Can be stored in the fridge, in a covered container, for up to four days.
Jumbo shrimp are typically sold as 21/25, which means there will be 21-25 shrimp per pound, in the bag.
Awesome! So glad you love it!
That's a fantastic substitution idea.
