How to Make Shrimp Egg Foo Yong Low Carb And Low Fat

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced, and 1 cup shredded cabbage. Cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Remove the onion and cabbage from the skillet. Drain off any excess liquid and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and the cooked onion and cabbage mixture. Gently stir in 1/2 cup bean sprouts.
  4. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
  5. Pour approximately 1/2 cup of the egg mixture into the hot skillet for each pancake. Evenly distribute 2 ounces of cooked shrimp (about 1/4 cup) over the top of each pancake.
  6. Cook for 3 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the pancake easily slides in the pan when gently jiggled.
  7. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
