  • 3/4 pound uncooked medium shrimp in shells
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 tablespoon chili or vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon chili or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 medium head cabbage, cut into 2x3/4-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-ounce carton)
  • 4 medium green onions, cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste

Steps

  • 1
    Soak mushrooms in hot water about 20 minutes or until soft; drain. Rinse with warm water; drain. Squeeze out excess moisture. Remove and discard stems; cut caps into thin strips.
  • 2
    Place carrot in boiling water; heat to boiling. Boil 1 minute; drain. Immediately rinse with cold water; drain.
  • 3
    Peel shrimp. Cut shrimp lengthwise in half; wash out vein. Pat dry with paper towels. Mix cornstarch and water.
  • 4
    Heat wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil; rotate wok to coat side. Add shrimp and garlic; stir-fry until shrimp are pink and firm. Remove shrimp from wok.
  • 5
    Add 1 tablespoon oil; rotate wok to coat side. Add mushrooms and cabbage; stir-fry 1 minute. Add broth; heat to boiling. Cover and cook 1 minute.
  • 6
    Stir in cornstarch mixture; cook and stir about 30 seconds or until thickened. Add shrimp, carrot, onions and chili paste. Cook and stir about 30 seconds or until shrimp are hot.

  • Uncooked shrimp in the shell, often referred to as "green shrimp", should smell fresh with no "fishy" aroma.
  • To save time, pick up a package of coleslaw mix in the produce section. Use 3 cups coleslaw mix instead of the 1/2 head cabbage.
  • Garnish plates with Green Onion Brushes. To make, cut each green onion 2 inches above root; slice off end of root. From root end, make 2 or 3 cuts into onion. Make 2 or 3 more cuts at a right angle to first cuts. Place in ice water until flower opens up.
