RECIPE WITH SESAME OIL RECIPES

Steps:

• Special equipment: a metal steamer basket
• Fill a large pot with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Arrange the carrots, asparagus, cauliflower and broccoli in a metal steamer basket; place in the pot and cover. Steam the vegetables until slightly tender but still with a little crunch, 5 to 6 minutes.
• While the veggies are steaming, heat a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the sesame-chile oil, olive oil, garlic and pepper flakes, and cook for 1 minute.
• Transfer the steamed vegetables to a bowl. Add the sesame-chili oil mixture and the lemon juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Add the water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, garlic powder, sesame oil and red pepper flakes to a bowl. Whisk well to combine and set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the butter and let melt. Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook until they just turn pink, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a plate or bowl.
• Increase the heat to high. Give the reserved sauce a good whisk and add to the skillet. Let simmer until thickened, about 3 – 4 minutes.
• Turn the heat down to medium. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let cook for 30 seconds. Garnish with sesame seeds.
