Instructions

Heat sesame oil (1 tablespoon) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic (3 cloves) and ginger (1") and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in Chinese five-spice (1 teaspoon), soy sauce (2 1/2 tablespoons), and rice vinegar (1 teaspoon), mixing to combine.
Add shrimp (1 pound) to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes on each side until the shrimp are opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside to prevent overcooking.
Add coleslaw mix (16 oz) and shredded carrots (1/2 cup) to the skillet and stir until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.
Serve the mixture over rice (2-3 cups) and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

Rice: Frozen rice in microwaveable bags is a total game changer—quick, easy, and surprisingly tasty. While Thai Jasmine rice is the most traditional, I’ve made this recipe with everything from brown rice to cauliflower rice, and plain white rice works just fine too. Use whatever you have on hand

Gluten-Free: Use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce and serve with cauliflower rice or gluten-free rice for a fully gluten-free meal.

Dairy-Free: Already is!

Vegetarian: Replace the shrimp with tofu or tempeh for a plant-based version. Sauté until crispy and then follow the rest of the recipe as written.

Spicy: To ad heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes or drizzle sriracha sauce on top. Adding sweet chili sauce with the soy sauce and vinegar mixture can also kick up the heat a notch.

Leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For best results, reheat on the stovetop over medium heat, adding a splash of water or broth to maintain moisture.
