This Thai Inspired Shrimp is really easy and really fast to make. And it tastes really good! Making it with Thai curry adds a little more kick, but it is equally good without it.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds shrimp
- 1 Tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 tsp cilantro
- 1 tsp parsley
- 1 Tablespoon grated lemon rind
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- optional ½ teaspoon Thai red curry paste
- 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
How To Put It Together
- Peel and de-vein the shrimp.
- Combine the coriander, cilantro, parsley, lemon rind, lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon olive oil, fish sauce, minced garlic and Thai curry paste (if you are using it) in the mixing bowl.
- Stir in the shrimp so that they are covered with the marinade.
- (optional) Cover and marinade for up to an hour in the refrigerator.
- Heat 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil in the frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the shrimp to the frying pan.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp turn pink, about 5 minutes.
Notes
Note: If you prefer, you can grill the shrimp instead of stir frying them. Just thread them onto skewers and cook in a single layer over medium grill heat until the shrimp turn pink.
