Description

Tender strips of marinated flank steak and juicy shrimp stir-fried with crisp veggies and savory sauce, served over fragrant jasmine rice for a quick, protein-packed dinner.


Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb flank steak, sliced against the grain
  • 1 lb raw, peeled & deveined shrimp (tail-off)
  • 1 package frozen stir-fry broccoli mix (~12 oz)
  • 1 package jasmine rice (ready-rice or cook fresh)
  • 1 tsp olive oil (for cooking)
  • ⅓ cup coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • Steak marinade:
  • ½ cup coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
  • 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 lime, juiced

Instructions

  1. Combine sliced flank steak and marinade ingredients in a resealable bag; refrigerate at least 4 hours (or overnight).
  2. Defrost shrimp in warm water while the steak marinates.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Sear steak strips ~3 min per side until browned (not fully cooked). Remove and set aside.
  4. Add shrimp to pan juices; cook until pink and opaque (~2–3 min), then remove and set aside.
  5. Steam or lightly cook stir-fry veggie mix until just tender (3–5 min).
  6. Return veggies to pan; add ⅓ cup coconut aminos and 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard. Simmer.
  7. Stir in cooked rice, then add steak and shrimp back to the pan. Mix and heat through.
  8. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and optional chili flakes or extra Dijon. Serve immediately or portion for meal prep.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free option, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Swap Dijon mustard for teriyaki, hoisin, or sweet chili sauce for a different flavor profile.
  • Replace jasmine rice with riced cauliflower for a low-carb version.
  • Add other vegetables like bell peppers, snap peas, onions, or mushrooms for variety.
  • Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 4 days in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave or skillet with a splash of water or broth.
