Plump shrimp are seared until opaque, then tossed with edamame, zucchini, and a cabbage-carrot mix in a glossy sweet soy and chili sauce. The stir-fry is served over fluffy white rice and finished with a drizzle of spicy gochujang aioli, sesame seeds, and fresh scallion greens for a satisfying balance of heat, sweetness, and crunch.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Cook Rice
1
  • In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Prep
2
  • While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.

  • Trim and quarter zucchini lengthwise; slice crosswise into ¼-inch-thick quarter-moons. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

  • Rinse shrimp* under cold water; pat very dry with paper towels. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add shrimp; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are opaque and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

Start Stir-fry
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for shrimp over medium-high heat. Add zucchini, edamame, scallion whites, and cabbage and carrot mix. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are browned and tender, 3-5 minutes. Turn off heat.

Mix Aioli
4
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine gochujang aioli with water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

Finish Stir-fry
5
  • Stir shrimp, sweet soy glaze, chili sauce, and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings) into pan with stir-fry; stir to coat. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in a splash of water.

Finish & Serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork.

  • Divide rice between shallow bowls. Top with edamame stir-fry. Drizzle with as much gochujang aioli as you like. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallion greens. Serve.

Review summary

Updated on Apr 2026
  • Flavor: Some found it bland and needing more sauce; others enjoyed the fusion flavors and sweetness.
  • Suggestions: Cook shrimp separately from purple cabbage to prevent blue discoloration. Skip gochujang aioli if you prefer milder heat.
  • Leftovers: Purple cabbage continues to stain shrimp blue in leftovers, making them unappetizing the next day.

This was excellent. I didn't use the gochujang because that would make it too spicy, but it didn't need it - it was perfect without it.

Instructions did not say to Cook shrimp separately. They turned blue when cooked with purple cabbage.

2.5 rounded up. I liked the edamame. The charred cabbage flavor did not work for me.

The taste was good but the cabbage bled into the shrimp making them look blue which was not appetizing.
