1 lb large cooked shrimp
1 lb frozen stir fry vegetables
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 cup shredded carrot (I buy the shredded carrots in the produce aisle)
1/4 cup olive oil, divided
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons chopped garlic, divided, fresh or from the jars
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt, divided (I use sea salt)
1 teaspoon black pepper, divided
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, divided
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons lime juice

Steps:

Shrimp Preparation:.
Defrost shrimp, and remove tails.
Place shrimp in a bowl, and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of chopped garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder and lime juice. Set aside.
Stir Fry:.
In large frying pan or wok, heat remaining olive oil and butter. Add all of the remaining ingredients (except shrimp). Cook on med high until vegetables are cooked, but crisp to the bite.
Add shrimp mixture, and cook for about 3 more minutes (until shrimp is warmed). You do not want to over cook the shrimp!
I serve with brown rice.
