Make
-
Toss shrimp with arrowroot mixture until thoroughly coated.
-
Heat a wok or nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add first part of cooking oil and then microwaved garlic and broccoli to heated oil. Saute for 2 to 5 minutes, until broccoli is cooked through to your liking. Finish with aminos. Remove from pan and set aside.
-
Wipe pan clean and return to medium-high heat. Add second part of cooking oil and then shrimp to heated oil. Using tongs, arrange shrimp so it’s spread out into one layer so they cook more evenly. Cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side until shrimp is golden.
