Thai Shrimp Stir-fry with Tomatoes and Basil - Slimmed
From Food Network Kitchens

Ingredients
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons Southeast Asian fish sauce
4 teaspoons light brown sugar
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon grated, peeled, fresh ginger
1/2 to 1 teaspoon red chile flakes
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 medium red onion, cut in 1-inch dice
1 medium yellow pepper, seeded, cut in 1-inch dice
1 jalapeno chile, thinly sliced into rounds
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
3/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup torn fresh mint leaves

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Serving suggestion: Jasmine rice

Directions
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, fish sauce, and sugar;
set aside. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger,
and chile flakes, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and stir-fry until pink
but still translucent in the middle, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a medium bowl with a
slotted spoon. Add the onion, pepper, and chile to the skillet, and stir-fry until lightly browned,
about 2 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan along with the soy sauce mixture. Bring to a boil, and
stir-fry until the sauce glazes the shrimp, about 1 minute more. Add the tomatoes and stir until
coated with sauce, about 15 seconds. Remove pan from the heat, stir in the basil, mint, and lime
juice. Transfer to a serving dish, serve immediately.
