Ingredients
- 1/3 pound green beans preferably haricots verts
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons ginger grated
- 3 tablespoons gluten free soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1/2 tablespoon monk fruit granulated, omit if using coconut aminos
- 1/2 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha optional, omit for nightshade-free
- 1 pound shrimp de-veined
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Prepare green beans - either steam in a glass bowl in the microwave until tender crisp, about 5-8 minutes, depending on your microwave, or toss with a bit of avocado oil and broil in the oven for 5-8 minutes, until tender and lightly charred.
- While beans cook prepare the shrimp. Heat the tablespoon avocado oil in a large pan over medium high heat and add the garlic and ginger. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the coconut soy sauce, monk fruit, fish sauce, and sriracha, Cook until little liquid remains, about 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring often until they are pink and just opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add the green beans and drizzle with sesame oil. Toss to combine everything and serve.
