SWEET AND SPICY SHRIMP STIR-FRY



Sweet and Spicy Shrimp Stir-Fry image

I threw together a few random ingredients to create this stir-fry. It turned out DH thought it was the best ever and labeled it Recipezaar-worthy. The sauce is sweet and spicy with just the right amount of "kick". DH suggested the addition of sesame oil to the veggies just after they are cooked tender-crisp, which gives a little extra "something" to the dish. This recipe calls for shrimp, but one could substitute chicken or pork as well. Enjoy!

STIR-FRIED BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Stir-Fried Brussels Sprouts image

Brussels sprouts caramelize to a deep, delicious brown while retaining a fresh bite in minutes when cooked on the stovetop. In this adaptation of wok stir-frying, the sprouts quickly sear in a single layer in a skillet, then steam through with a splash of water to tenderize their tough cores. Crushed garlic cloves release their aroma into the hot oil, but are in chunks big enough to not burn and get bitter. A final sprinkle of sugar, soy sauce and red-pepper flakes give the sprouts a nice balance of sweet, salty and spicy. You can eat this with other stir-fries and steamed rice or alongside any main dish. Leftovers, reheated or cold, can be tossed into grain bowls and salads.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Neutral oil, such as grapeseed or canola oil
4 garlic cloves, smashed, then peeled
1 pound brussels sprouts, halved or quartered, if large
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
Red-pepper flakes, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over high for a few minutes. Drops of water should skitter across the surface then evaporate quickly. Set the pan lid and 1/2 cup water next to the stove. Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan (3 to 4 tablespoons), then add garlic and sizzle until fragrant and wisps of smoke rise from the oil, about 15 seconds. Add brussels sprouts, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and stir to coat with oil. Spread in an even layer, carefully add water and immediately cover.
  • Cook without stirring until the water has almost completely evaporated, 4 to 6 minutes. After silent simmering, there will be loud popping sounds that quiet to a crackle.
  • Uncover, sprinkle with sugar and soy sauce, and stir for 1 minute. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, prepare all of your ingredients and have them within reach. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your stir-fry will taste. Look for fresh, crisp vegetables and plump, juicy shrimp.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will not cook evenly and the shrimp will not brown properly. Cook the shrimp and vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Use a high-heat cooking method: Stir-fries are traditionally cooked over a high heat, which helps to quickly cook the vegetables and shrimp and prevent them from becoming soggy. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring the ingredients constantly will help to prevent them from sticking to the pan and burning.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served hot and fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, cook the shrimp and vegetables according to the recipe, but do not add the sauce. When you're ready to serve, reheat the shrimp and vegetables over high heat, then add the sauce and cook for another minute or two.

Conclusion:

This spicy shrimp and Brussels sprout stir-fry is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying meal, give this stir-fry a try!
