How to Make Let's Get Together Thai Shrimp

Pat 1 pound of shrimp dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 tablespoon lime juice. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet.
Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Add 1 cup chopped tomatoes, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk, 2 tablespoons curry powder (adjust to your spice preference), 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional), and the remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice to the skillet.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
Simmer uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and the sauce has slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
Add the cooked shrimp back to the skillet and heat through.
Garnish with 1/4 cup chopped cashews and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro before serving over jasmine rice.
