Description

A simple shrimp and broccoli stir fry with a delicious homemade sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 pound Broccoli, Chopped
  • 1 pound Shrimp, Peeled
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ¼ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
  • 4 whole Scallions, Cut Into 1 Inch Sections
  • 1 teaspoon Minced Ginger
  • 2 Tablespoons Sesame Seeds
  • Cooked Rice, To Serve
  • FOR THE SAUCE:
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth
  • 2 Tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • ¼ cups Soy Sauce (gluten Free Tamari)
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Garlic Sauce
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • ¼ cups Water

Preparation

In a wok over medium-high heat, heat vegetable and sesame oil together. When hot but not smoking, add broccoli. Cook 3-4 minutes.

Add shrimp, garlic, red pepper flakes, scallions and ginger. Cook, tossing occasionally until shrimp is cooked through (4-5 minutes).

For the sauce, in a separate pot add broth, sesame oil, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce and garlic. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. In a separate bowl, mix water and cornstarch until smooth. Add mixture to the sauce and mix until smooth. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer until sauce has thickened to desired consistency 5-6 minutes.

Pour sauce over the shrimp stir fry and toss until combined. Serve over rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Note: Modified February 2015 to correct a typo on the cornstarch and water amounts (amounts were flipped when recipe originally entered).

Was the cornstarch quantity a typo? I didn’t take notice until I stirred it in and poured in on the shrimp stir-fry. It made it very gummy and thick. I wanted to give it a higher rating but it just didn’t have a lot of flavor.
