How to Make 5 Tablespoon Shrimp Stir Fry

  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil (vegetable or canola) in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the shrimp to the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
