I had my son in mind when I made this dish. He loves seafood, and he loves anything with soy sauce. I picked up some fresh shrimp from our grocery store and made a shrimp stir fry with asparagus and grape tomatoes. This dish comes together in 10 minutes and is tasty served over sesame and garlic basmati rice. We loved it, especially my son and husband, who devoured every last bite.

  1. This isn’t that dissimilar to our traditional Christmas Eve dinner – except that I use plenty of garlic, no soy sauce, and spinach in lieu of asparagus. This looks like a great dinner, Pam!

  2. YUM! I’ve been craving shrimp since the last time you posted a shrimp recipe. I usually choose more frugal options, but once in awhile can’t hurt right? I can’t think of anything better to pair it with than asparagus. Thanks for another great recipe.
