Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce

Shrimp in a frying pan in Teriyaki sauce is a balanced dish with a pronounced sweet and sour taste. Real Teriyaki is a glossy and shiny sauce with a viscous consistency. It is perfect for dishes with meat, poultry, and seafood. To make the dish perfect, it is important to choose fresh and high-quality shrimp. If the shells are dry, the meat has a yellowish color and black spots are visible, these are old shrimp. It is worth giving preference to shrimp with an even smooth color and a bent tail.

How to cook Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce

Step 1

Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce

Marinate the vegetables. Heat a frying pan and pour in sesame (or olive) oil. Put the onion in and fry it for 1 minute. Add the chopped carrots and zucchini to the onion, lightly fry them until half-ready. This process will take no more than 2-3 minutes. Throw the vegetables in a colander, let the oil drain.

Step 2

Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce

Prepare the seafood. Peel the defrosted shrimp. Throw them in a heated frying pan with the remaining sesame oil. Add garlic, ginger and thyme. Fry on both sides for 1-2 minutes. When the shrimp in teriyaki sauce are browned, pour in enough water to cover them slightly and simmer until done under a lid on low heat for about 3 more minutes. Mix the fried vegetables with three tablespoons of Teriyaki sauce and leave to marinate for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce

Mix the marinated vegetables and shrimp. Add the vegetables to the fried shrimp and heat them in a frying pan for a few minutes. Teriyaki sauce itself has a salty taste, so there is no need to add additional salt.

Shrimp in Teriyaki Sauce - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use frozen shrimp, but make sure to thaw them completely before cooking to ensure even frying and proper texture.
Olive oil works well as a substitute, though it won't have the same nutty flavor. You can also use avocado oil or another neutral-tasting oil.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave before serving.
Yes! Replace shrimp with tofu or mushrooms, and use a plant-based teriyaki sauce for a vegetarian-friendly version.
Add red pepper flakes, a dash of hot sauce, or sliced fresh chili peppers when frying the garlic and ginger for extra heat.
Serve over steamed rice, quinoa, or noodles. A side of stir-fried greens or a simple cucumber salad complements the flavors.
Yes, but the shrimp may become slightly rubbery upon reheating. Store in a freezer-safe container for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Yes—30 minutes is ideal for flavor absorption, but if short on time, even 10-15 minutes will work.
