💡 Pro Tips
💡 Dry shrimp thoroughly — wet shrimp steam instead of sear.
💡 Shrimp are done the second they curl into a C-shape. Remove immediately.
💡 Snow peas should keep their crunch — if they go limp, they're overcooked.
🔬 Diet Adaptations
Gluten-FreeUse tamari and GF oyster sauce.
Low-FatUse cooking spray instead of oil. Steam snow peas.
