SHRIMP EGG ROLL IN A BOWL
Shrimp egg roll in a bowl is a delicious one pan meal that the whole family will love!
INGREDIENTS 1x2x3x
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 5 cups roughly chopped green cabbage
- 1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
- 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp sweet red chili sauce
- 4 green onions
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the onion, cabbage, carrots, and garlic. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage is softened and the carrots are tender.
- Push the vegetables to the sides of the pan, leaving a bit of space in the middle. Add the sesame oil to this space and let it heat up for a minute, then add the shrimp. Cook for 2 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until shrimp is pink and opaque throughout.
- Add the rice vinegar, soy sauce, garlic chili sauce, green onions, and sesame seeds (if using). Stir to combine and cook another minute. Enjoy!
- NOTES
- If you are using shredded cabbage (like packaged coleslaw) rather than roughly chopped cabbage, you’ll need less cooking time.
- Sriracha can be used as an alternative for the sweet red chili sauce for slightly different flavor (try starting with 1 to 3 teaspoons; range depends on spice preference).
