Stir-fried Shrimp (lunch)

by Irene Lindvall


Happy Birthday to my mother-in-law! We had dinner out together which means I needed to make lunch for us. I went with another recipe from the Best Ever Cooking for Two Magazine. It seemed like an easy recipe but there were a lot of steps. The prep took a lot longer than I expected. Step two was to clean the shrimp and marinade them for at least 10 minutes so I turned that into step one. They ended up marinating for at least 15 minutes while I was preparing the sauces and other steps. Everything was easy to cook and the taste was great. The pineapple was extremely juicy, and I ended up serving the shrimp over 1/2 a cup of rice. Another great dish for a cold day.

Things I learned from this recipe:

The pineapple chunks would've been better smaller. However, I am glad I went with the fresh pre-cut from the grocery store instead of the canned.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Sure
