Happy Canada Day Everyone!

In honor of Canada Day I thought I’d share a yummy Shrimp recipe that I made last night for dinner.

Spicy Orange Shrimp that I got off Closet Cooking. You can check out the original recipe here.

This recipe took a lot of pre (it took me about 45 mins to get everything ready) but it was definitely worth it in the end.

Spicy Orange Shrimp

• EVOO
• 1 bag of shrimp
• 1 tbsp grated garlic
• 1 tbsp grated ginger
• 1 orange (juice and zest)
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp chilli sauce (I used a sweet chilli sauce)
• handful of chopped cilantro
• Noodles or Rice (we used rice noodles)

Peel Shrimp (or buy the pre-peeled stuff)

In one bowl mix together soy sauce, rice vinegar, chilli sauce.

Pretty cool reflection in the bowl!

Juice and zest orange. Place in separate bowl.

Grate garlic and ginger, chop cilantro.

In a wok heat oil and cook shrimp until pink. Set aside.

Cook the ginger and garlic for about 1 min then add the orange mixture and the soy sauce mixture. Heat for 3-5 mins until it thickens to a sauce.

Add shrimp and cilantro.

Follow the directions for the noodles on the box then add them to the mixture.

Volia! A yummy, healthy dinner.

This was so good! I’d definitely recommend it.

I served it was some chopped veggies. Organic baby tomatoes and snow peas.

I hope everyone enjoys their Canada Day and I’ll be back tomorrow.
