1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1 1/4 lbs uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro

Notes

Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer sauce.

Add bell peppers, spinach, or snap peas for more vegetables.

A squeeze of lime juice brightens the flavors.

For heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes or add chili slices.

Reheat gently with a splash of coconut milk to avoid drying.
