Quick dinner idea
Frozen cooked shrimp (or leftover cooked chicken, pork, etc.)
chopped up garlic in a jar (optional)
chopped up ginger in a jar (optional)
onion - optional
pepper - optional
olive oil (can add sesame oil if you have it)
coleslaw mix
soy sauce (optional)
peanuts chopped up or a tsp peanut butter (optional)
Quick cooking brown rice in a bag (optional)
put the amount of shrimp you want to thaw in running cold water (in a bowl or colander)
Follow instructions for rice and put in microwave (mine calls for a quart of water and 10 minutes)
Put olive oil in a pan and heat
Cut up an onion and/or pepper if you have them and if you have time to cut them up. Add to pan.
Add garlic and/or ginger if you have it.
Add coleslaw mix (and onions and peppers) to the pan and stir until wilted.
Drain shrimp once it has thawed - minutes.
Add shrimp to pan and stir to heat through. Remove from heat as soon as food is warmed through.
Add soy sauce, peanuts, peanut butter (optional)
This is a recipe I found elsewhere on the site. I made it with shrimp - next time I will grill an extra pork chop for it - I think the pork would be a nice mix with the flavors. Very easy, very fast, very good.
