Shrimp and broccoli in garlic sauce is a classic Cantonese dish. It is super healthy, delicious and It takes about 15 minutes to make.
To marinate the shrimp
14 oz 400 grams of Shrimp
1/4 tsp of salt
1 tsp of paprika (Amazon Link - geni.us/k19xa)
1/3 tsp of black pepper
2 tsp of vegetable oil
To make the sauce:
1/2 cup of water
1/2 tsp of sugar
1 tbsp of oyster sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/nmsF8)
1 tbsp of soy sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/XhhnS)
1/2 tbsp of hoisin sauce (Amazon Link - geni.us/qTdtVX)
1 tsp of dark soy sauce
2 tsp of cornstarch
Others
2-3 tbsp of vegetable oil to stir fry
12 oz 340 grams of broccoli
8 cloves of garlic, diced
1/2 tbsp of ginger
A few red dried chilies (Amazon Link - geni.us/Ksb7RQ)
2 tbsp of water
Instructions
Use paper towels to dry the shrimp then season it with 1/4 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of paprika, 1/3 tsp of black pepper, and a drizzle of vegetable oil. Mix well and set it aside.
Cut the broccoli into florets. Some people will throw out the stems. Let me share a wonderful way to use the stems. Peel the skin and cut them into quarters. Pickle them just like how you will pickle cucumbers. You will be surprised by how good they taste.
Dice 8 cloves of garlic and 1/2 tbsp of ginger. Optionally, cut open a few dried red chilies to spice up the dish, you can also use chili flake if you want.
Before we turn on the heat, let’s put the sauce together: 1.5 tsp of cornstarch, 1 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of oyster sauce, 1/2 tbsp of hoisin sauce, 1/2 tsp of sugar, 1 tsp of dark soy sauce, and 1/2 cup of water. Mix well.
Turn the heat to high and heat your wok until it is smoking hot. Drizzle in a few tbsp of oil and swirl it around to cover the bottom. Toss in the shrimp. The wok is super hot. You only need to stir the shrimp for a couple of minutes and they should turn nice and pink. They are not completely cooked through yet. The inside is still a bit translucent. That is the point you want to take them out. Don’t worry, we will cook them further later.
Make sure you tilt the wok to leave the oil behind. We will use that to stir fry the vegetables. Turn the heat back on medium and throw in the garlic, ginger, the optional red dried chilies, and the broccoli. Toss for a minute or 2. Add a splash of water from the side of the wok. Quickly put on the lid to trap the steam so it cooks the vegetables through. This way, the broccoli is stir-fried then semi-steamed, which tastes so much better than just blanched broccoli.
Pour in the sauce. Introduce the shrimp back into the wok. Toss for a couple of minutes or until the sauce is thickened. And you are done.

Thank you for watching. Just a little bit info about my condition. I have been trying different arthritis medications over the last 2 years and hope to find one that works for me. During this trying period, I have to take Prednisone to help with the symptom. It messed up my appetizer. I feel hungry all the time and I eat 3 times as much compare to before. I had to cook lots of vegetables and low-fat meat just to fill up my stomach and prevent me from eating rice and noodles. Because I am Asain, and I am constantly wanting to eat rice and noodles. Especially I am testing and cooking all the time. So it is very difficult. Well, below are some of the recipes that worked for me, you can check them out if you want.

I wish you all the best in your medical journey and hope that you find the medicine that works best for your arthritis as soon as possible 🌺

[@weedo3]

The word you're looking for is appetite not appetizer. Appetizers are the small plates of food you may order before a main course like egg rolls or dumplings.

[@eliot2283]

I too have a condition. I am what doctors call a "fatso." I am now on a strict Atkins diet, since that has always worked for me, and it's the only thing that can break me from my carbohydrate addiction. I am going to try this recipe, but I will use a sugar substitute instead of the sugar. It looks great.

[@theowheels66]

Appetite not appetizer. I love all your recipes, will be making tonight. Sorry to have to correct you but I'm a grade school English teacher

[@jeanettebarr9090]

Best wishes.

[@didisinclair3605]

Mandy, I hope you find a solution to your arthritis. I'm so grateful that you post, even when you might be in pain. I send good luck and love.

[@MidoriMushrooms]

Came down here to echo this sentiment. I love watching this channel. I also send good vibes. :)

[@dawhike]

Try eating grass fed ground beef 80%-20% and more saturated fats with collagen and MSM.

[@vlocity245]

I agree and hope you find relief! You may want to avoid foods with plant lectins also. Best wishes

Hello. I’m so sorry to hear about your arthritis. Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us. You’re such a lovely young lady and I wish you the best!

[@jensdivineutopia]

I just made this today. I added some carrots and cabbage as well and it was wonderful! Thank you!!!

[@is4233]

Made this today for dinner. It was delicious! The whole family loved it. I added a thinly sliced chicken breast to the shrimp and it turned out good. Mandy, thank you very much for the recipe! Everyone in my family asked to make it again soon.

[@janasophiadavid]

I just did this recipe today!! It’s so delicious! My fiancé loved it! He requested that I do this every week!! Thank you for sharing!!

[@milawong4718]

I love to watch you cook. You have the most amazing ability to make everything seem easy! Keep on sharing with us!

[@LJ-gn2un]

I've really enjoyed trying out Mandy's different recipes, especially this one! One of the things I've noted she really has done her homework putting these recipes together, as far as the amount of ingredients that will fit perfectly in the wok without over crowding it, and most importantly the flavor profiles. I'm learning! The only thing I did differently on this recipe was to add about a 1/2 tbsp sesame oil and tossed it in right before adding the sauce. I like VERY spicy food so I doubled the amount of chili's, split and de-seeded them, and soaked them in the water (warm) the recipe calls for and then added it. It turned out delicious - and HOT! If the top of my head doesn't sweat it's not spicy enough for me!

[@Stell_uh]

So delicious, fast and simple! Thank you! Adding this to my weekly meals ❤️

[@barbaragroves]

I love Shrimp with broccoli! It's my favorite stir fry. Now, I have to try yours. Thanks, Mandy and I hope your situation gets better.

I love watching you cook. You make it seem so easy! Your chicken fried rice recipe is my all time favorite, but this one is a must try. Thank you for sharing your recipes and cooking with us.

Thank you Mandy for sharing this, and the fact that you have health challenges. My challenges cause me to struggle with my weigh too. Thank you for the idea

[@silenthunter5074]

Here's hoping I can get this wok for my new kitchen and can make everyone I know enjoy Chinese and Asian cooking as much as I do! Thanks for launching the wok for the UK again!

[@gypsyvanneraddict]

I made this today and it was epic! Thanks for your fabulous recipes. I made a few changes - I used hoisin sauce, fish sauce, dark soy and oyster sauce- I also added red pepper and onions to this recipe … epic!! Better than take out!!! I omitted the paprika - I forgot about it. It came together so quickly! REQUEST FOR CHINESE ALMOND COOKIES PLEASE ❤️🐾❤️

Hi, Mandy! I’m so sorry to hear your arthritis hasn’t improved. I have it as well but in my knees. As long as you’re healthy, whatever size you are isn’t important. You seem beautiful inside and out! And you’re absolutely my favorite channel! My best to you. I’ve had this before but I’m going to try it again with that marinade! Thanks so much, as always!

Great video Mandy. Thanks for sharing. I love stir fried shrimp. I will add some cornstarch before the initial fry to add some crispiness. So delicious. And thanks for the amazing wok. I use it for all my stir fry dishes. Happy Cooking, UB

[@mamisigordon3558]

I have loved the Asian cuisine for many moons. You made this very simple and effective. Thanks!😄😍

[@peasetill2]

Great recipe! I wanted a white sauce so I cooked the shrimp shells for 5 minutes, added chicken stock and simmered for a few minutes. Loved it. Many thanks.

[@MrSridharMurthy]

I love to watch your show ! Neat and informative. I will definitely buy my wok very soon ! Praying for your good health ! Cheers !

[@samhall8880]

Great recipe, Mandy. The sauce looks delicious and the recipe in general is super easy. And I'm going to experiment a little on my own finding a substitute for the broccoli since I'm not a big fan, but I will definitely use something just as healthy.

[@michaeljackson1388]

Mandy I am fan of your recipe videos and wish you well as you manage your arthritis. Thank you for continuing to share such wonderful recipes under such a circumstance I will make shrimp and broccoli as well chicken lo mein this week. I made the Dan Dan noodles in the Souped Up Recipes Wok. The Wok seasoned well and cooked as advertised! I love the Wok! Thanks!

[@ernestturner915]

I just bought your wok off of Amazon and it's the finest wok I've ever owned..Thank you for such a lovely product and I'm already putting it to good use..

[@davidfence6939]

Made this tonight. Substituted the sugar with a keto friendly substitute. Other than that the same. Delicious! Reminds me of the garlic sauce dishes we had at the American Chinese restaurant I worked in. It was a Cantonese family run restaurant. Thank you for this reminder of a missing restaurant. 😋

[@user-tp8qk6zg9c]

Thank you so very much for your posts! I love watching you!!

[@arah6783]

Thank you for this recipe. I changed a lot of it by having steamed vegetables and frozen shrimp instead but still works I also don’t have other sauces but only teriyaki and soy sauce still works with the cornstarch. It’s quick and easy food I can eat after work.

[@juliemassie3294]

I think you are the sweetest cook around. I ordered your wok today. And I made this recipe today in a fry pan. its really good.

[@vernellalston1844]

I made this tonight and it was about the best shrimp and broccoli I've ever had! I love shrimp and/or chicken and broccoli, my favorite Chinese food! I didn't have hoisin sauce, but added some sesame oil. Next time I'll use chicken. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

[@holeman1]

Looks so good. Gonna try it today with ham today. Thanks for sharing and take good care of yourself.

I love this recipe. Thank you for your time. Hope you feel better now. Just let you know that you are appreciated

[@JL-ze5qm]

I made this tonight and it turned out perfectly delicious! I added water chestnuts, too, and served it on steamed rice. I didn't have dark soy sauce and I omitted the sugar, but it was still great! Thank you so much for your recipes! (I especially liked the way the broccoli is steamed in the wok, rather than blanching them first, which is more nutritious, and one less pot to wash.) I'm going to order some dark soy sauce for next time.

[@bunniesayrawr]

Hi Mandy, I made this recipe twice but without a wok. Both times the sauce was runny even when I cooked for a couple of minutes. I added more cornstarch and it thickened better. I also added a little more sugar to my taste. Next time I want to double the sauce because it’s so good and it will make it easier to eat with rice. Thank you for your recipe 😊

[@RealJohnnyDingo]
