my first attempt at recreating my favorite thing to order at chinese restaurants 😀
nothing like a good protein packed meal after a hard work out. GRRR. (<– that’s me making tough sounds. scary, no?)
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/3 lb shrimp, shelled and deveined.
- ~ 10oz shelled frozen edamame
- 2 tbs rice wine
- 2 tbs corn starch
- garlic salt
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1-2 stalks of green onion
INSTRUCTIONS:
- dissolve ~ 1/2 tbs corn starch and a pinch of salt in rice wine. toss and mix shrimp.
- in a small sauce pot, boil water.
- heat wok. add tbs of oil. stir fry shrimp until no longer translucent (~5 min). don’t cook all the way! overcooked shrimp = crap. remove from heat into bowl you marinated it in.
- when water boils, cook edamame as per instructions (2-3 min)
- dissolve rest of corn starch in a small bowl with chicken broth. set aside.
- drain edamame. add to wok. dump in shrimp.
- pour in broth. mix until sauce thickens. (2 min) season with garlic salt to taste.
- toss in green onions.
- remove from heat and serve.
