    Quick and Easy Shrimp Stir-Fry

    Does this recipe really only take 15-minutes? Yes, because I’ve timed it myself. There’s just some quick slicing and prep and then everything goes into your skillet or wok for a quick 10 minutes of cooking. This quick and easy shrimp stir-fry really is as advertised.

    Some nights dinner is a force greater than a toddler tantrum in Target and finding the power to press forward in your kitchen can be a feat in and of itself. Those are the nights when I’m here for you dear friend with a dinner made in under 15 minutes.

    A dinner filled with fresh ingredients so light you’ll practically be floating on air after devouring the entire skillet.

    What is Miso?

    According to Fine Cooking miso is a Japanese condiment that originally came from China. Doujiang, the Chinese predecessor to miso, was invented as a way to preserve soybeans. The plant was an important crop for replenishing the soil, but the beans spoil quickly. The Chinese turned to fermentation to preserve the beans and keep them edible. Miso was born.

    Do I Need a Wok for Stir-frying?

    Absolutely, not! Yes, I actually used my Le Cruset braiser to prepare this recipe and it turned out perfectly. Although, I should note I immediately ordered a wok because I sensed many more stir-fry dinners in our future.

    Tips for Preparing Stir-Fry

    Use a large skillet with rounded edges to prepare this recipe.

    Don’t overcrowd the skillet! Too much shrimp and vegetables won’t allow room for proper cooking.

    Stir-frys are quick so you’ll want to use a medium-high temperature when cooking. This allows the shrimp to cook through while the vegetables remain crisp.

    Ingredients

    • ¼ cup Soy Sauce
    • 4 Garlic Cloves minced
    • 3 tablespoons Miso Paste
    • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
    • 1 lb Large Shrimp peeled and deveined
    • 1 Red Bell Pepper seeded and sliced
    • ½ cup Carrots shredded
    • ½ cup Chicken Broth
    • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
    • 2 cups Snow Peas
