Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Thai Shrimp and Snow Peas Stir-Fry.
Step 1
To create a delicious and vibrant dish, start by making the sauce.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, mix together fresh lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, and cornstarch.
Step 3
Heat this mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a gentle simmer.
Step 4
Keep an eye on it as it thickens, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 5
While the sauce is bubbling away, grab a non-stick skillet and warm up 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in minced garlic, chopped jalapeno peppers, and whole black peppercorns.
Step 7
Sauté these aromatic ingredients for 1 to 2 minutes until your kitchen is filled with a delightful fragrance.
Step 8
Next, add the remaining olive oil along with sliced onions, thawed sugar snap peas, juicy cherry tomatoes, and colorful bell peppers to the skillet.
Step 9
Stir everything together and let it cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender and vibrant.
Step 10
Now it’s time to introduce the star of the show: the shrimp! Gently fold in the shrimp, along with freshly chopped cilantro and mint.
Step 11
Cook this mixture until the shrimp turn a beautiful bright pink and the meat becomes opaque, which should take around 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 12
To serve, spoon the shrimp and vegetable medley over a bed of fluffy cooked rice.
Step 13
For an extra touch, garnish with fresh bean sprouts and drizzle the luscious sauce you prepared earlier on top.
Step 14
Enjoy this colorful and flavorful dish that’s sure to impress your family and friends!.
