This Cabbage and Shrimp stir fry is super delicious and simple to make. It also is versatile and you can add more ingredients or less as I will explain below. Either way, this recipe is a keeper! 

WHAT KIND OF SHRIMP FOR STIR FRY

The bigger the better of course! I like to cook mine with the shells on, because it gives the dish more flavor!

However, you can use peeled shrimp if desired. 

Be sure to use SESAME OIL and lots of it to cook this dish! It gives it an Asian flavor and is so unbelievably good. 

WHAT GOES WITH CABBAGE AND SHRIMP STIR FRY

Parboil rice, however you can omit the rice if you are on a keto diet and or use cauliflower rice or quinoa in replace if desired. 

For this dish I used parboil rice, i find it works best in comparison to basmati which is better for East Indian type dishes. 

OTHER INGREDIANTS THAT CAN GO INTO THIS STIR FRY

• Broccoli
• Bell Peppers

Cabbage and Shrimp stir fry RECIPE

IS SHRIMP STRI FRY HEALHY

Yes, prawns are packed full of lean protein then when you add the bell peppers to this dish you then add in plenty of fiber and antioxidants from the vegetables. Not to mention the fresh garlic and spices that make this dish come all together.
