Stir fries are a great quick, easy and healthy dinner solution because they come together so quickly. A great dinner shortcut here is to use pre-cut broccoli florets, to cut down on prep time.  Use that time to whip up a quick and easy stir fry sauce. Using a homemade stir fry sauce makes this shrimp stir fry even better, because it tastes so much better than a bottled sauce!  Serve it with my Coconut Rice for a complete, fast and delicious dinner!

    1. Hi, the nutrition is calculated from a database that pulls the nutrition info based on the ingredients in the recipe. The nutrition info is offered as a convenience but is an estimate. Please feel free to do your own calculations if you prefer!

  1. Fabulous recipe. Excellent that I can make something so delicious at home, no more need for take out! Just before serving I mixed in some cashews. Next time I’ll double the sauce, a little extra on the rice would have been yummy!

  2. I made this tonight and we really enjoyed it. I liked that it came together quickly. We didn’t have the chili garlic sauce but I did have some Thai red curry paste which worked just fine. Only thought was that I don’t think 1 Tablespoon of corn starch was needed, we had to add some water at the end. I think half the amount of corn starch would make it thick enough for the amount of liquid.

    I made this tonight. I didn’t have the chili garlic sauce (and my husband doesn’t like spicy stuff) so I added freshly squeezed orange juice. As for other ingredients, I added carrots with the broccoli. I was planning to add parsley as another topping with the sesame seeds, but I got distracted and forgot the parsley. I’ll do it again next time.

  4. Your recipe looks delicious and quick to make. I’ve pinned your recipe, for the next time we cook broccoli and prawns.

    I made this last night… and it was DELICIOUS!! I didn’t have the chili garlic sauce but substituted lemon for the vinegar, and added a smidge of tabasco sauce and it was deeeeevinee!!! We used about 2 pounds of shrimp – nothing leftover. Super quick to make, fresh, yummy & overall scrumptious. Will become a staple in our house!
