  • 1 lime
  • 1
  • 100g
  • 3 cloves
  • 1 tablespoon

  • 1 tablespoon
  • for serving

Kitchen Tools:

  • wok
  • chef’s knife

To start, heat up your wok over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. Toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Next, add in the sliced red bell pepper and snow peas, cooking until slightly softened.

Now, it’s time to add the star of the show – the large shrimp! Stir-fry the shrimp until they turn pink and are cooked through. Pour in the coconut milk, lime zest, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Let everything simmer together for a few minutes until the flavors meld beautifully.

Savor the aroma of the creamy coconut milk mingling with the tangy lime zest – it’s a tropical paradise in your kitchen! Serve the tangy coconut lime shrimp stir-fry over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness.

Tip:

For an extra kick of flavor, squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice over the finished dish just before serving. It will elevate the citrusy taste and bring a burst of zing to every bite!

This tangy coconut lime shrimp stir-fry weighs approximately 1000g once cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 250g and contains approximately 350 calories. I hope you enjoy recreating this unique and delicious dish in your own kitchen – feel free to customize it with your favorite veggies or spice it up with some chili flakes. Bon appétit!
