Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 cups spiralized zucchini (zoodles)
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Swerve or erythritol
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chili paste
- 1/4 cup crushed peanuts
- 1 lime, cut into wedges for serving
- Fresh cilantro, chopped for garnish
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, fish sauce, rice vinegar, Swerve, sesame oil, and chili paste. Set aside.
- Heat avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink and are cooked through, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the spiralized zucchini, julienned carrot, and sliced green onions. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the vegetables start to soften but are still crisp.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the vegetables and add the bean sprouts. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Return the shrimp to the skillet and toss with the vegetables and sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to reheat the shrimp and allow the flavors to meld together.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if necessary.
- Serve hot, garnished with crushed peanuts, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges on the side.
