Apparently I’m on some sort of a kick. It must have been my recent trip to our local Asian market that inspired the recent recipes. First, it was the Tricolor Thai Salad with Zucchini & Yellow Squash. Then came the Chinese Noodles with Chicken, Bok Choy & Hoisin Sauce. And now I’m diving into the miso paste with this shrimp and zucchini stir-fry.
I’ve always said that I should take out stock in Kikkoman because my love of soy sauce and all-things salty and savory runs thickly through my veins. That may not be such a great thing for my sodium intake, but I justify that by running mile upon mile
As with most stir-fries, this easy dinner recipe comes together quickly. Simmer the sauce while you peel the shrimp and slice the zucchini, which will each take you mere minutes to cook. I only used two-thirds of the sauce for the stir-fry and poured the rest over mounds of brown rice.The miso, which can be found in the produce section of many supermarkets, adds a salty, rich taste to the sauce and balances well with the lime and orange juices. And don’t forget to use fresh ginger in the sauce. A potent hit of the savory root makes all the difference in the world.
The recipe:
The sauce:
Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the garlic and red chili flakes, and cook for additional 30 seconds.
Add the chicken broth, lime juice, orange juice and rice vinegar. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low, and stir in the miso, sesame oil and agave nectar. Stir until the miso dissolves into the sauce.
The stir-fry recipe:
Heat the canola oil in a wok or large skillet set over high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, without stirring, until just cooked through, 1 minute per side. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Add the zucchini to the pan and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
Combine the shrimp and zucchini on a serving dish. Drizzle two-thirds of the sauce over top and save the rest for another use (e.g., drizzling over rice).
