Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a saucepan, whisk together lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 3-5 minutes.

02

Step
2 mins

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat. Add minced garlic, jalapeno peppers, and black peppercorns. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

03

Step
8 mins

Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil, sliced onions, thawed sugar snap peas, halved cherry tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender-crisp, about 8 minutes.

04

Step
3 mins

Add the peeled and deveined shrimp, chopped cilantro, and chopped mint to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp is bright pink on the outside and opaque throughout, about 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook the shrimp or they will become rubbery.

05

Step
1 mins

Serve the shrimp mixture immediately over cooked long-grain rice. Top with the thickened sauce. Garnish with fresh bean sprouts, if desired.

For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of red pepper flakes or remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno peppers before chopping.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables such as broccoli florets, sliced carrots, or mushrooms.
For a richer flavor, use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
Serve with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.
