Easy Teriyaki Shrimp Stir Fry Recipe
Having frozen shrimp on hand is a lifesaver. Have you ever disappointed your mom because she asked you to take something out of the freezer for dinner and you totally forget? Luckily, with frozen shrimp, it takes around 10 minutes to thaw in cold water, then really only 10 minutes maximum to cook on the stove.
Pretty lucky save huh? Pair that shrimp with my super easy teriyaki sauce and some green, and you’ve got yourself the easiest dinner (or meal prep for lunch). For this easy teriyaki shrimp stir fry, I used the same teriyaki sauce in my sheet pan chicken teriyaki meal prep, it’s a delicious and versatile sauce. The shrimp can also be marinated in this sauce if you’d like as well.
Did you know that In some cases with farmed shrimp, ecologically-sensitive habitat has been cleared in the past in order to create ponds for shrimp production. This has unfortunately led to negative effects on coastal communities. With Marina Del Rey’s Wild Caught Argentinian Shrimp, they work with responsible fisheries that are constantly working towards improving their fishing practices through Marine Stewardship Council standards in order to have a low as possible ecological impact.

Tips on Making This Teriyaki Shrimp Stir Fry
- Make sure to pat dry the shrimp before cooking the shrimp. If your shrimp is wet, the shrimp will steam in the pan instead of getting a nice caramelization on the shrimp.
- Want to add more vegetables to this? Make sure they are the same size as your snap peas so everything cooks evenly (vegetable ideas: broccoli, bell peppers, onions, etc).
- Using peeled and deveined shrimp saves time but if you only have the shells-on shrimp, those work as well.
