Caribbean Stir-fried Shrimp

Total Time: 13 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
• 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
• 1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice, drained, and patted dry
• 1 lb frozen large shrimp, thawed peeled and cleaned
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
• 1/4 cup canned diced mild green chili
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 3 cups hot cooked rice (optional)

Recipe

• 1 heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. add half the oil and heat until smoking, about 10 seconds. add the onion and stir-fry until lightly browned, about 1 minute. add the pineapple and stir fry gently until pineapple browns lightly, about 1 minute. remove pineapple to a bowl and set aside.
• 2 add remaining oil to the pan. add shrimp and stir-fry until opaque, about 1 minute. add garlic and red pepper, if desired, and stir fry for 10 seconds.
• 3 add the tomatoes, chilies, and reserved pineapple and stir fry until heated through, about.
• 4 1 minute. stir in soy sauce and serve over rice, if desired.
• 5 tip: we’ve kept the spiciness light (the canned chilies are mild) and the pinch of crushed pepper flakes is optional. if you want to add a little more heat, increase the pepper. or for a completely family friendly version, eliminate the red pepper flakes, and your stir-fry will be as mild as a tropical breeze.
