How to Make Thai Style Prawn Shrimp Stir Fry

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp (or prawns, tails on or off) and stir-fry for 1 minute until they begin to pink.
  2. Add 1 stalk lemongrass (finely chopped), 2-3 Thai chilies (finely chopped or to taste), 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 1 inch ginger (minced). Stir-fry for 2 minutes until fragrant and shrimp are cooked through. Remove from wok and set aside.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 cup frozen corn, 1 cup broccolini florets, 1/2 cup sliced capsicum (bell pepper), 1/2 cup green beans (trimmed), and 1/2 cup shredded carrot. Add 1/4 cup of water, cover, and cook for 2 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
  4. Return the shrimp mixture to the wok. Toss to combine and heat through. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves and 1/2 cup bean sprouts.
  5. Serve immediately in shallow bowls, garnished with lime wedges. Enjoy!
