GARLIC SHRIMP

GARLIC SHRIMP WITH ORIENTAL VEGETABLES

Ingredients:

¾ pound large shrimp, shelled and deveined
2 cloves garlic, minced
2/3 cup fresh mushrooms, washed and sliced
4 green onions, cut into 2" julienne strips
1 can (8 oz.) water chestnuts, drained and sliced
2/3 cup edible pea pods, tough ends and strings removed
1 tablespoon cornstarch, dissolved in 1/2 cup water
¼ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 package (1 teaspooon) chicken bouillon granules
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Sugar substitute equal to 1/2 teaspoon sugar (i.e., 1/2 teaspoon SugarTwin®)

In a large, heavy skillet sprayed heavily with nonstick spray, stir-fry shrimp and 1 clove minced garlic over medium-high heat. When cooked, remove from pan and keep warm. Respray pan with nonstick spray. Add remaining garlic, mushrooms and green onions. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often. Cover to steam-sauté if vegetables become too dry.

Remove from pan when crisp-tender and keep warm with shrimp. Add remaining ingredients to pan and cook, stirring constantly, until pea pods are crisp-tender and sauce is thickened. Stir in shrimp and vegetables. Serve with plain rice. Serves 3.
