This is based on a recipe from a Gourmet magazine pamphlet titled Every Day Meals . The intro to the recipe states, If you have regular broccoli on hand, you could use the florets as a substitute for the Broccolini (a cross between broccoli and Chinese kale), though the flavor will be somewhat different. Round out this stir-fry with cooked white rice.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
3/4 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined (size 15)
1 1/2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 bunch broccolini, cut into 1/4-inch-thick diagonal slices (8 ounces)
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet over moderately high heat, add 1 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add shrimp and cook until golden and almost cooked through, about 1 minute on each side.
2. Remove shrimp to a dish.
3. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in skillet over moderately high heat until smoking, then saute ginger and garlic, stirring until golden.
4. Add broccolini, water, hoisin, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring until Broccolini is just tender, about 5 minutes.
5. Stir in shrimp and cook until just heated through.
