Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup diced pumpkin
  • 8 oz large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 cup bell peppers (any color), sliced
  • 1 medium sweet onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • red pepper flakes to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients by dicing the pumpkin into cubes and rinsing the shrimp under cold water.
  2. In a large skillet or wok over medium heat, add sesame oil. Once hot, sauté minced garlic and grated ginger for about one minute.
  3. Add diced pumpkin, sliced bell peppers, and chopped onion; stir-fry for about five minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Incorporate the shrimp into the pan and season with soy sauce; cook until the shrimp turn pink and opaque (about three minutes).
  5. Stir everything together, adding red pepper flakes if desired.
  6. Serve over rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Use fresh shrimp for maximum flavor; overcooking them makes them rubbery.
  • Always chop your veggies uniformly to ensure even cooking.
  • Don’t rush the sautéing process; each ingredient deserves its moment in the spotlight!
  • Store leftover Pumpkin and Shrimp Stir-Fry in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
  • When reheating, do so on low heat in a skillet to keep the shrimp tender and the pumpkin perfectly soft.
