Paleo Chinese Shrimp Tomato Stir Fry Recipes

TOMATO SHRIMP STIR FRY (番茄炒虾仁)

Steps:

• Combine shrimp, 1 teaspoon minced ginger, 1 tablespoon Japanese sake and the potato starch in a small bowl. Mix well and let marinate for 5 minutes.
• Add diced tomato, rice vinegar, the remaining 1 tablespoon of Japanese sake, honey, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Mix well.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot. Add onion. Cook and stir until slightly browned. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon ginger. Stir a few times. Move all the ingredients to one side of the pan with a spatula.
• Add shrimp, with all the marinade, onto the empty side of the pan. Immediately spread, so the shrimp cover the pan evenly. Let cook without stirring for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the bottom is slightly browned. Stir to combine everything, until the surface of the shrimp is cooked.
• Add the tomato sauce mixture. Stir to mix well.
• Add snow peas and green peas. Continue cooking and stirring until the snow peas start to turn tender, and the shrimp are cooked through. Carefully taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Transfer everything to a plate.
• Serve warm over steamed rice.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to boil. Poach the shrimp. As soon as they turn pink (about 5-6 seconds in hot water). Rinse them under cold water and set aside to drain.
• In a well-heated cast iron or ceramic non-stick skillet, add 1.5 tbsp ghee and swirl the oil around the skillet. Lower the heat to medium/medium-low, add the egg mixture and stir into a soft scramble egg. When the eggs are about 50-60% cooked (about 2.5-3 minutes), set aside.
• Add 1 more tbsp ghee, saute diced tomatoes with chopped garlic. Season with a pinch of salt and saute for about 10 seconds. Add shrimp and egg back to the skillet. Coat the shrimp with eggs and tomato sauce.
• Give them a quick toss (about 5-6 seconds). Garnish with green parts of scallions and 1-2 tsp toasted sesame oil. Serve in room temperature or slightly chilled with cauliflower rice or steamed rice (for gluten-free).

PALEO EASY SHRIMP STIR-FRY

Steps:

• If you are using raw shrimp you will need to remove shells and vein.
• First prepare the marinade by mixing the almond butter, coconut oil, sesame oil, water, vinegar, honey, sriracha sauce, rep pepper flakes, garlic and salt together in a bowl large enough to hold all shrimp.
• Once you have cleaned shrimp (you can use precooked for this if you wish but remove the tails) add shrimp to marinade, stir and let set 20-30 minutes.
• While shrimp are marinading cut vegetables and mushrooms.
• When shrimp are done marinading, Place frozen and fresh vegetables in heated wok or skillet (I have a vegetable basket I place on the grill for mine). Stir in the hot oil for 1-2 minutes. Add shrimp but not all the sauce. Stir shrimp into vegetables and let cook till heated through. Add remaining marinade sauce and stir.
• Cook until shrimp are pink and vegetables are done but still on the lightly crisp side. (if using precooked shrimp make sure you get it heated through good).
• Serve with grilled summer squash or grilled romaine lettuce.
