Shrimp Stri Fry
Easy, fast and Healthy!
Traditionally, stir-fries are cooked in a wok over extremely high heat.
While it’s impossible to replicate that in a home kitchen, a cast iron skillet
is the next best thing.
Read on for more top tips on how to make this easy one-pot dinner.
Stir-frying is a fast-paced cooking method, which means there’s no time to be doing any prep work once you start cooking.
You’ll want to make sure all of your ingredients are prepped and ready (we’d even suggest
stirring together the sauce in advance) before you turn on the heat.
