Why Make This Shrimp and Asparagus Stir-Fry?

With just a handful of wholesome ingredients and a speedy stir-fry technique, this recipe delivers restaurant-quality results in under 30 minutes. Asparagus and mushrooms soak up the savory sauce, complementing the succulent shrimp perfectly. The minimal prep and cleanup means you can savor more time enjoying your meal and less scrubbing up after.

Essential Prep for Vegetables and Shrimp

For even cooking and eye-catching presentation, prepping your vegetables into uniform pieces is key. Make quick work of slicing asparagus and mushrooms with a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper, which saves time and ensures everything cooks evenly. Peel and devein the shrimp, then pat them dry—this helps them sear instead of steam.

Stir-Frying to Perfection

A quality nonstick pan or skillet is crucial for fast, high-heat cooking. The SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch lets you cook everything to tender-crisp perfection without sticking or burning. Work in batches if needed so the vegetables and shrimp have enough room to sear and develop flavor.

Keep your sauce simple: a mix of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil brings the ingredients together. Whisking these up is a breeze using a small bowl or a personal-sized blender like the Ninja Fit Compact Personal Blender, 700-Watt Base for perfectly emulsified results.

Serving and Storage

Stir-fries are best served hot, straight from the pan. For easy meal prep or leftovers, portion your stir-fry into a Bentgo Salad Container – 54 oz Bowl. This air-tight container keeps the dish fresh and mess-free for lunches or dinners on the go.
