Crispy Polenta with Garlic Bok Choy and Honey Teriyaki Shrimp
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Or Olive Oil
- 1 package (18 Oz. Size) Prepared Polenta, Cut Into 9 Equal Pieces
- 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 3/4 pounds Peeled, Deveined Shrimp
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Mirin
- 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil Or Olive Oil
- 3 heads Baby Bok Choy, Thinly Sliced
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Soy Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 1 whole Green Onion, Thinly Sliced, Whites And Greens Separated
- 2 Tablespoons Roasted Wasabi Edamame, For Topping (optional)
- Note: I cook the shrimp, bok choy, and polenta separately in 3 skillets all at the same time.
- If youd like to save on dishes, cook the dishes in one skillet, starting with the polenta, then the bok choy, then the shrimp.
- For the polenta, heat a large skillet to medium-high heat with the vegetable oil.
- Cut the polenta into 9 equal rounds.
- When the oil is hot, add the polenta and let sit for 4 minutes, then flip.
- The polenta should be browned and crispy on the first side.
- When you flip the polenta, add the sesame oil to the skillet evenly.
- Continue cooking the polenta on the second side until browned, then set aside until ready to serve.
- For the shrimp, combine the mirin, soy sauce, corn starch, honey, and 2 tablespoons water in a small dish.
- Preheat a skillet to medium-high heat with the vegetable oil.
- When the oil is hot, add the shrimp and cook for 90 seconds on the first side.
- Flip the shrimp and add the teriyaki sauce to the pan.
- The sauce will bubble and thicken immediately.
- Turn the heat off the shrimp to let the shrimp finish cooking in the warm sauce.
- For the bok choy, heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic and white parts of the onions and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the bok choy, soy sauce, and sriracha and cook for 5 minutes or so, stirring a few times, until the greens have softened.
- To serve, layer polenta, then bok choy, then shrimp.
- Top with the green parts of the onions, the roasted wasabi edamame (if using), and extra sriracha, if youd like.
- Enjoy!
