Categories     Stir-Fry

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce*
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce*
1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated or minced
4 green onions, thinly sliced on an angle, whites & greens separated
7-8 cups thinly sliced Napa cabbage
2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce*
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, sesame oil and chili garlic sauce. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate while you prepare the cabbage.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil over high heat in a large skillet, preferably cast iron (or a wok, if you have one). Once hot, add garlic, ginger and the white portion of the green onions and stir-fry until fragrant. Add cabbage, chili garlic sauce and soy sauce and stir-fry until the cabbage is crisp-tender (tongs work really well for this). Transfer cabbage to a platter and wipe out the pan.
  • Heat remaining tablespoon of peanut oil over high heat. Add shrimp and stir-fry until cooked through. Place shrimp on top of the cooked cabbage, and return the skillet back to the stovetop and allow the pan juices to reduce to a nice glaze, stirring occasionally. Once reduced, pour over top of the shrimp and garnish with remaining green onions and some toasted sesame seeds.

6 tablespoons peanut oil
2 shallots, thinly sliced
1 (2-inch) piece ginger, peeled and grated
1/2 small head napa cabbage, core removed and finely sliced
Salt

4 cups cooked long-grain white rice

SHRIMP AND EGG FRIED RICE WITH NAPA CABBAGE - TYLER FLORENCE



Shrimp and Egg Fried Rice With Napa Cabbage - Tyler Florence image

This is soooo good! I have made this 3 or 4 times now, so have adjusted it to our liking. I use 1 lb. of shrimp instead of the 1/2 lb, and green onion instead of the shallots. You can use green cabbage or Bok Choy instead of the Napa cabbage if you can't find it. Use your imagination, I have added diced red pepper, bean sprouts (at the end for some crunch.) If snap peas or snow peas are in season, I use them instead of the peas. I think some chopped cashews on top instead of the peanuts would be good as well. This is from Food Network, Tyler Florence. Hope you enjoy!

SHRIMP AND CABBAGE LO MEIN



Shrimp and Cabbage Lo Mein image

Strips of sliced cabbage echo the shape of the noodles in our version of a familiar Chinese-American dish. Cooked briefly, the cabbage wilts slightly but keeps some crunch.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Shrimp Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces linguine
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, such as safflower
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 head green cabbage (2 pounds), halved, cored, and thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook linguine in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain, return to pot, and set aside. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, sugar, and red-pepper flakes; set mixture aside.
  • While pasta is cooking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Add shrimp and half the garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until shrimp are opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate (reserve skillet).
  • Place cabbage, remaining garlic, and 1/2 cup water in skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes. To pot with linguine, add cabbage, soy-sauce mixture, and shrimp; toss to combine. Serve, garnished with cilantro, if desired.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: Julienne the ginger, chop the garlic and green onions, and slice the cabbage into thin strips. This will make the cooking process much faster.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will ensure that the shrimp and vegetables have enough space to cook evenly.
  • Cook the shrimp in a single layer: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many ingredients at once, the temperature of the pan will drop and the food will not cook properly.
  • Stir-fry the ingredients over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the shrimp and vegetables and will also help to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the sauce towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best enjoyed hot out of the pan.

Conclusion:

This Shrimp with Napa Cabbage and Ginger is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The shrimp are cooked perfectly and the vegetables are tender-crisp. The ginger and garlic add a nice flavor to the dish, and the sauce is light and flavorful. Serve this dish with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
