Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry

Ingredients:

• 6 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon chili sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/2 lb asparagus, trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces
• 1 cup snow peas
• 2 lbs Portico Classic 21/25 tail-on P&D White Shrimp – SUPC: 6734939

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine the garlic, ¼ cup of water, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, chili sauce, and cornstarch. Whisk to combine.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is glistening, add the bell pepper, asparagus, and snow peas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink and opaque, 3 to 4 minutes more.
3. Add the soy sauce mixture to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is slightly thickened and the shrimp and veggies are completely coated, about 5 minutes.
4. Serve over cooked rice, sprinkled with cilantro and sesame seeds, if desired.
