Mushroom Free Shrimp and Vegetable Stir-Fry with Coconut Aminos

Bright, fast, and packed with color, this shrimp stir-fry is the kind of weeknight dinner that looks like it took way more effort than it did. Juicy shrimp get seared over high heat until perfectly pink and opaque, then tossed with crisp snow peas, tender carrots, and scallions in a glossy, savory sauce. Coconut aminos stand in for traditional soy sauce, delivering that deep umami hit without any of the usual additives — and since the sauce is whisked together from scratch, there's no guesswork about what's actually in it. The arrowroot-thickened glaze clings beautifully to every piece of shrimp and vegetable, so each bite is coated in that gingery, turmeric-warmed flavor. For anyone navigating a diet that rules out fungi, this recipe is a genuine win — no mushroom-based sauces, no oyster sauce, no hidden ingredients to second-guess. A squeeze of lime and a handful of fresh cilantro at the end lift the whole dish and make it feel restaurant-worthy. Get everything prepped before you turn on the heat, because once the wok is hot, this one moves fast.
