Shrimp and vegetable stir-fry recipe is very easy to make and very tasty. You just defrost the shrimp and frozen vegetables and stir-fry them with a little oil, then add garlic and soy sauce for extra flavor. If you don’t have garlic and soy sauce, don’t worry – just use salt and your favorite spices.
