Stir-frying is a technique that originated in Chinese cooking in which one continually stirs small pieces of vegetables and proteins in oil over high heat. Even when following an Eastern-inspired recipe like stir-fry, there’s no need to look too far from home for the highest quality ingredients.
Our Wild Gulf Shrimp is the perfect protein for this method thanks to its bite-sized shape, fast cooking time, and delicious flavor. It is wild-caught in U.S. waters and totally free of chemicals and antibiotics -- touched only by sea water!
