Shrimp and Asparagus Stir-Fry


A simple, easy, and super healthy dish that you have to try!

This dish is low in calories and carbohydrates. A perfect lunch or dinner.

All you need is a dozen shrimp (or more, depending on how many people you are feeding), fresh asparagus, and low-sodium teriyaki sauce.

Instead of heating up olive oil in my pan, I decided to use toasted sesame oil. I did not use a lot, because I know that the fat content is higher than regular olive oil, but it gives a nice flavor to your shrimp and asparagus. I made sure to put enough (but not too much) into the pan, so that I wouldn’t have to add more once I took my shrimp out.

First, put your shrimp in the pan, add some salt and pepper, and cook until they turn pink. Take the shrimp out and set aside. Cut your asparagus in halves, and add to your pan. Cook them until they start to become soft and super green. Once your asparagus is ready, add the shrimp back into the pan, along with 2-3 tbsp. of your teriyaki sauce. You can add as much or as little as you would like.  


And there you have it, a delicious and healthy meal! (Not the best picture I have taken of my food, but I just couldn't wait to dig in !!)
