Notes
Shrimp Stir Fry is best served hot. For a touch of color and freshness, sprinkle some chopped green onions or sesame seeds on top. Enjoy it as a standalone meal or pair it with spring rolls for a complete feast. Prep ahead by chopping your vegetables and measuring out ingredients before cooking. Don't overcook the shrimp; they cook quickly, so remove them from heat as soon as they turn pink to avoid a rubbery texture. Customize your veggies based on what you have on hand.
