Shrimp & Asparagus Stir Fry

For the sauce:
2 tsp. sesame oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/4 cup of soy sauce (I use kikkoman's low sodium)
2 tsp. of ground ginger (or use fresh ginger if you have it)
2 tsp. hoisin sauce

1 bunch of asparagus
1 lb of shrimp (I used frozen, peeled shrimp)

Heat sesame oil over medium heat, add garlic.  Stir around for a minute, then add soy sauce and hoisin sauce.  Wisk in ginger.  Add frozen shrimp, cover pan.  Rinse the asapragus, and chop off about an inch from the bottoms.  Cut into thirds.

Stir around the shrimp to ensure it cooks evenly. If you're using raw shrimp - give it about a 5 minute head start before adding the asparagus.  If you're using precooked, it just needs to be heated through.  The asparagus only needs about 4 - 5 minutes on heat for it to tenderize.



Serve over brown rice & enjoy :)
