Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry

October 22, 2016 by Liza Agbanlog 4 Comments

Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry This shrimp and asparagus stir fry caught my attention because it is both simple and healthy. I am a huge fan of shrimp/prawns and have shared many recipes in the past. A family favorite is Filipino Camaron Rebosado, which I would cook often when my kids were growing up. However, camaron is deep fried and so I would only make it on special occasions. The same thing cannot be said about this healthy stir fry dish! With under 300 calories per serving and low in carbs, I would consider this dish to be healthy.
Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry To make this asparagus shrimp stir fry, the shrimp is first cooked in the skillet all the way through. Then, the shrimp is set aside while the asparagus is cooked until tender-crisp. After adding garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes, the shrimp is re-incorperated into the pan. Finally, soy sauce and lemon juice are mixed in. The result is a stir fry dish packed with flavor and color. Enjoy!
