Maple Teriyaki Shrimp Stir-Fry

Maple syrup is a staple in our kitchens. We use it as a natural sweetener in a wide variety of dishes both sweet and savory. We love that it adds flavor along with sweetness. That’s why we were excited when Coombs Family Farms contacted us about developing some new recipes featuring their maple syrup.

In this recipe we’ve added mild maple sweetness to a homemade teriyaki sauce, which helps bring out the flavors of the veggies and shrimp. Once all the veggies are chopped, which can be done ahead of time on a prep day, this dish comes together quickly and easily. It’s better than takeout both in flavor and nutrition. Substitute any of your favorite proteins and feel free to change out the veggies for those that need using up in your fridge.

Ingredients

Sauce

• 1/4 cup low-sodium tamari or soy sauce
• 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
• 3 tablespoons real maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Stir-fry

• 1 tablespoon avocado oil or another neutral flavored oil such as grapeseed or sunflower
• 1/2 medium purple onion thinly sliced
• 1 medium Carrot thinly sliced into coins
• 4 baby bok choy sliced in half lengthwise
• 2 cups bite sized broccoli florets
• 1 medium red bell pepper cut in 1/4-inch strips
• 1 pound raw extra large shrimp, tails on or cubed chicken, beef, salmon, or tofu
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 4 cups cooked brown rice or your favorite grain
• 2 teaspoons Sesame seeds optional for garnish

Servings:

Instructions

1. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the teriyaki sauce ingredients. Set aside.
2. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté just until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add carrot, bok choy, broccoli, and bell pepper and stir fry, until vegetables are tender but still crisp, about another 7 minutes.
3. Remove vegetables from skillet.
4. Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel. Add the toasted sesame oil to the skillet and cook the shrimp (or other protein) until cooked through, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Once the protein is cooked thoroughly, add the veggies and teriyaki sauce to the skillet. Allow the sauce to come to a simmer to thicken slightly, about 2 minutes. Toss all ingredients together to coat, then remove from heat.
5. Divide rice (or grain of choice) into 1 cup servings and top each with 1/4 of the stir fry.
