Servings: 4
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 pound frozen raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
  2. ½ cup coconut aminos
  3. 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  4. 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
  5. 1 teaspoon brown sugar, or to taste
  6. 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  7. 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  8. 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  9. 2 teaspoons water
  10. 2 cups steamed white rice
  11. 1 tablespoon sliced green onions (Optional)
  12. 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Place frozen shrimp in a single layer on a metal pan and set aside.
  2. Combine coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, and sesame oil in a large skillet. Bring to a boil over medium heat, 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add shrimp to the boiling sauce in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook until shrimp curls into a “C” shape and changes color from white and pink, 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring to remove lumps. Add slurry to the skillet and cook, stirring briskly, until sauce is slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Serve over hot cooked rice and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
  5. If you use regular soy sauce instead of coconut aminos, use about 1/3 cup and increase the amount of sugar to taste.

Made this exactly as directed except I doubled the sauce. My daughter loved it! Her plate was clean. Easy and quick dish to make. I think I would make this again.

I enjoyed it but my husband thought it was too sweet. Great presentation.

I used soy sauce but less than the recipe called for. I added pineapple juice to the mix from canned pineapple chunks to make up the right amount of liquid. After I cooked the shrimp, I put them aside and added the cornstarch mix. I then added the pineapple chunks and snow peas to get them hot, put back the shrimp and served it over rice. It was a big success. Next time I will add a little more brownsugar to make it a bit sweeter.

We used light soy sauce and added a teaspoon of honey. Next time I will add a little more honey.

Pretty good recipe. I doubled the recipe and added a pound of chicken tenderloins and zucchini/broccoli/mushrooms. Had to cook vegetables first then removed, then chicken then removed, cooked shrimp, thickened and added everything back in. Think chunks of pineapple would be a nice addition as well if you add chicken. Overall think the recipe does well on its own but had to add chicken for the non shrimp eaters in the family.
