Quick and Easy Stiry Fry

If you're anything like me, you probably don't eat as many vegetables as you probably should because you don't know what to do with them.  But one thing is for sure-I do know how to cook up a quick and easy stir fry so I thought I'd post up a simple recipe for those of you who can be a bit challenged in the vegetable department as I can.


Ingredients:
  • 3 cups of cooked pre-cooked shrimp
  • Sliced onions
  • Chopped carrots
  • Broccoli florets
  • Baby corn (in can)
  • Zuccini cubed
  • Oil of your choice-3-4 Tbsp (I prefer canola or coconut oil)

Sauce:
  • Hoisin Sauce-4 Tbsp
  • Soy sauce-1 Tbsp
  • Garlic Chilli Sauce-1tsp (more if you prefer)
  • Chicken broth 1 cup
  • Chicken Boullion Powder (1 Tbsp
  • Cornstarch-1 Tbsp

Directions:
In a small bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic chilli sauce, chicken broth, chicken boullion powder, and cornstart and set aside. 

Pre-heat oven to 350 Degrees, line pan with foil and spread shrimp evenly through pan.  Once oven has been pre-heated place shrimp in oven and let bake for approximately 10 minutes. 

In a wok or skillet, heat 3-4 Tbsp of oil over medium-high heat; add in your onions and let sautee until slightly brown.  After oil has browned, add your vegetables: broccoli, carrots, baby corn, and zuccini and stir fry for about 5-10 minutes.  Once shrimp has cooked, add shrimp and stir fry for another 3 minutes; at this point you can then add your sauce. 

Once you've finished stir fry, serve with rice: my favorite is Jasmine rice.
