I REALLY love quick and easy meals. Last night my husband worked pretty late and I don't like to eat without him so it was important that I made something that could be done quickly but didn't skimp on the flavor. This was a great choice and we both ate it up!
I mean how yummy does this look?
By the way, I LOVE my Polish Pottery bowls! It's just one of the MANY benefits of living in Europe! :)
Okay so here is the very simple recipe...
Ingredients:
4 Tbsp Olive Oil, divided
1 Pounds Large Raw Shrimp, peeled & deveined
1 Pound Asparagus, trim the ends & cut into 2-3" pieces
Salt to taste
1 Tsp Minced Garlic
Lemon Sauce Ingredients:
1 Tbsp Sugar (I use an organic, raw brand)
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1/4 Cup Lemon Juice
1 Tsp Lemon Zest
Directions:
* In a small bowl, combine all of the lemon sauce ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
* In a large pan, heat up 2 Tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the pan and season with salt to taste. Cook until both sides are opaque, but slightly undercooked.
*Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
* In the same pan you cooked the shrimp add the remaining 2 Tbsp of olive oil and about 1/2 cup of water over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus and season with salt to taste. Cook until asparagus is bright green and tender-crisp.
* Add garlic and the lemon sauce to the asparagus. Cook another minute or so.
* Add the shrimp back into the pan with the asparagus and sauce.
* Simmer for about a minute or two, until the shrimp are fully cooked.
*ENJOY! :)
