Follow these simple steps to create your Garlic Chili Shrimp Stir-Fry:
- Prepare All Ingredients: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are prepped and ready to avoid overcooking.
- Heat the Oil: In a large pan or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Sauté Garlic and Chili: Add the minced garlic and sliced chili peppers to the pan. Sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
- Add the Shrimp: Incorporate the shrimp into the pan, stirring frequently. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and opaque.
- Toss in Vegetables: Add the sliced bell pepper and snap peas (or green beans) to the pan. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Season the Dish: Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using). Stir well to combine all the flavors and cook for another minute.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste and add salt or pepper if needed.
- Serve Hot: Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro or green onions.
These straightforward steps ensure that your Garlic Chili Shrimp Stir-Fry is not only quick but also full of flavors that will leave everyone wanting more.
