Garlic Broccoli Shrimp Stir-Fry

So simple, so yummy!

I found this recipe on the beloved Tasty by Buzzfeed app and made it a while ago with the mental note of making it again and often; it is so easy and very yummy! 

For more sustenance I ate it with brown rice, but you could serve it with noodles, quinoa, or just about any other starch you like! This recipe is so simple and versatile; jazz it up however you like! It made about 4 helpings for me, perfect for meal prep!

Here's the ingredient list:

- 1 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined*

- 3 cloves of garlic, minced

- 2 cups of broccoli

- 1/2 onion, diced**

- 1 tbsp. soy sauce (I used low sodium)

- 2 tbsp. sesame oil, divided***

- 1/2 tsp. salt, divided

*I actually prefer to buy the precooked shrimp from the meat/seafood counter at the store, but you can use raw if you prefer!

 **We all know I have an aversion to the texture of cooked onion, so for this I subbed about a 1/2 tbsp. of onion powder

***If you don't have sesame oil, vegetable or canola oil works just as well!

Here's how to make it:

1. Heat 1 tbsp. of sesame oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat

2. Add shrimp and 1/4 tsp. salt

3. Fry shrimp for 1 min. each side

4. Remove shrimp; add in remaining sesame oil

5. Add onion (if you don't sub for onion powder) and remaining salt and saute until onion is soft*

6. Add broccoli, garlic, and soy sauce and saute until garlic is fragrant (~30 secs)

7. Toss shrimp back into pan, mix until all ingredients are incorporated, and fry for for another minute (or until shrimp is fully cooked if starting with raw shrimp)

8. Enjoy!

*If you are like me and hate onions, add the onion powder when you are frying the shrimp for the last minute so the flavor is incorporated amongst all the ingredients!
