Ingredients
- 2 tsp canola oil
- 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/8 tsp red chili flakes
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 2 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp white miso
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp agave nectar
- 2 tsp canola oil
- 3/4 lb. large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 large zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch thick semi-circles
Instructions
- The Sauce:
- Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the garlic and red chili flakes, and cook for additional 30 seconds.
- Add the chicken broth, lime juice, orange juice and rice vinegar. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low, and stir in the miso, sesame oil and agave nectar. Stir until the miso dissolves into the sauce.
- The Stir-Fry:
- Heat the canola oil in a large skillet set over high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, without stirring, until just cooked through, 1 minute per side. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
- Add the zucchini to the pan and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
- Combine the shrimp and zucchini on a serving dish. Drizzle two-thirds of the sauce over top and save the rest for another use (e.g., drizzling over rice).
