steak and shrimp recipes
Craving a surf-and-turf experience at home? Dive into the world of steak and shrimp stir-fry—a quick, flavorful dish that brings together tender beef, succulent shrimp, and crisp vegetables in a savory garlic-herb sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 Garlic & Herb Sauté Express® Sauté Starter squares
- 1 pound skirt steak, flank steak, or other cut of beef, thinly sliced
- 1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 medium red onion, sliced (yellow or sweet onion may be substituted)
- 1/2 yellow/golden bell pepper (red or orange would be excellent, too)
- 8 ounces sugar snap peas or snow peas (in pods)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 cup cooked rice (for serving)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the Garlic & Herb Sauté Express® Sauté Starter squares until they begin to bubble.
- Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet. Cook for about 30 seconds on each side, just until browned. Push the beef to one side of the pan.
- Add the peeled and deveined shrimp to the empty side of the skillet. Cook for 1 minute on each side, until pink and opaque. Remove both the beef and shrimp from the skillet and set aside, covered.
- Let the pan heat back up, then add the soy sauce. Whisk or stir for about 20–30 seconds, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, sugar snap peas (or snow peas), and sesame seeds. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Reduce the heat to low. Return the cooked beef and shrimp to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Spoon the steak and shrimp stir-fry over cooked rice. Garnish with extra sesame seeds or fresh herbs if desired.
