Savory Shrimp Chop Suey

A homemade delight featuring tender shrimp, fresh vegetables, and a savory sauce, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp ginger root (grated)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 small yellow onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 stalk celery (thinly sliced)
  • 1 large carrot (thinly sliced)
  • 1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup snow peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 pound large shrimp (fresh or thawed frozen)
  • 2 cups bean sprouts

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the sauce ingredients: chicken stock, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, corn starch, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion, celery, carrot, bell pepper, and snow peas. Stir fry for about 5 minutes, until vegetables are just tender yet crisp.
  3. Add the shrimp and bean sprouts to the skillet. Stir fry for an additional 3 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and pink.
  4. Pour the sauce into the skillet. Stir everything until the sauce has thickened and is heated through, about 1 minute.
  5. Serve the Shrimp Chop Suey over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

Quality matters! Always opt for fresh, locally-sourced vegetables and ensure shrimp are shell-on for extra flavor.
