4 Serving(s)
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Schnucks large shrimp (26–30 count), peeled and deveined, cooked
- 2/3 cup Schnucks sweet-and-sour sauce
- 1 large carrot, peeled and sliced
- 1 (20 oz.) can Schnucks pineapple chunks in juice, drained
- 1 large green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 medium red onion, chopped
- 2 cups Schnucks brown rice, cooked
- 1/4 cup sliced green onion, for garnish
Instructions
- In a gallon zip-top freezer bag, add shrimp, sweet-and-sour sauce, carrot, pineapple, bell pepper and red onion. Seal and turn to coat. Frozen, shrimp mixture keeps up to 4 months. If freezing, press air out of bag for easier storage. Before using, thaw at room temperature 1–2 hours or overnight in the fridge.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, stir together shrimp mixture (thawed if frozen) with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce thickens, 5–8 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper, if desired. Serve over hot brown rice, garnished with green onion.
For a cost-saving option, replace the shrimp with 1 lb. chicken breast cut into bite-size pieces. Skip the water in Step 2 and cook thawed chicken mixture until it reaches 165 degrees, about 10 minutes. This cuts the cost per serving to $3.15!
