My schedule is pretty full these days, so I'm all about preparing healthy and delicious meals in a short time. The other night I created Easy Gochujang Shrimp. I quickly sauteed shrimp and then tossed it in a sauce made up of Gochujang, fish sauce, soy, rice wine vinegar, and a splash of sesame oil. The shrimp were perfect and dressed in the most amazing flavors.
Ingredients for Easy Gochujang Shrimp:
2 pounds Jumbo Shrimp (21-25 count)
grapeseed oil
kosher salt
black pepper
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/3 cup sliced scallions
Sauce:
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon Gochujang
1/4 cup +1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced scallions for garnish.
Time - Saving Tip: Prepare the sauce earlier in the day.
Let's see what we need.
We're ready to cook.
Combine sauce ingredients.
Add 2 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick pan. Once the pan is very hot, add the shrimp; season with salt and pepper. Saute over high heat until shrimp turns pink, add the sauce. Continue cooking over high heat for another minute, tossing the shrimp in the sauce; the sauce will thicken. Garnish with the sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
It's ready! Easy Gochujang Shrimp is delicious and so easy to prepare. This is the perfect meal after a busy day or to start the weekend.
Enjoy!
