Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 can coconut milk
4 Tbsp soy sauce
2 limes
3 Tbsp brown sugar
4 tsp Sriracha sauce
4 Tbsp coconut oil
3 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced
2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 red bell pepper, sliced thin
1 cup fresh basil leaves
4 cups cooked rice

Steps:

  • Heat half of coconut oil (2 Tbsp) in a large skillet over medium heat. Slowly add ginger and cook approximately 1-2 minutes. Add shrimp to skillet and stir fry until pink but still translucent (not fully cooked); about 4-6 minutes. Remove shrimp and set aside. Add remaining oil to skillet. Add peppers and stir fry until crisp and beginning to caramelize; approximately 3-4 minutes. Whisk together coconut milk, soy sauce, juice of both limes, brown sugar and Sriracha. Add shrimp to skillet with pepper. Cover with coconut milk mixture. Bring to a boil and stir frequently. Sauce will thicken and shrimp will turn opaque in color. Remove entire skillet from heat. Stir in basil leaves, reserve a small amount for garnish. Serve over rice and garnish with remaining basil.

The sauce was delicious. It was sweet, savory, and slightly spicy. It was the perfect complement to the shrimp.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out right. It was too thin and didn't have much flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I had some shrimp that was about to go bad, and this recipe was the perfect way to use them up.

I didn't have any Thai basil, so I used regular basil instead. It still turned out great!
