This Orange Ginger Shrimp Stir-Fry is the perfect weeknight meal; it’s quick and flavorful, plus packed with vibrant vegetables and nutrient-dense shrimp. Thanks to Anolon, we’re sharing recipes focused on: “Out with the Old, In with the New with Anolon Cookware”. Out with the boring weeknight dinners and in with this stir-fry!
One of the quickest and most delicious meals you can make this week is a simple stir-fry! They’re packed with fresh vegetables, spices, and protein, which make them a healthy and colorful choice to serve your family. The key to a great stir-fry to to prep ahead. Thinly slice all your vegetables and marinate your protein even before you start heating up your stir-fry pan.
We cooked up this Orange Ginger Shrimp Stir-Fry using the Anolon Nouvelle Copper Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12-Inch Stir Fry pan and loved it! Here are some of the main characteristics of this pan:
- European-inspired design and pleasing, subtle colors;
- durable, hard-anodized construction crafted with copper to deliver optimum heat control;
- double full cap base on the stir fry includes a copper core layered between aluminum and magnetized stainless steel, making the pan compatible with all cooktops, even induction;
- Restaurant-tested DuPont™ Autograph® 2 nonstick on the pan is metal utensil safe and delivers long-lasting food release and easy cleaning;
- Oven safe to 500°F
Such a gorgeous pan and it made the cooking of vegetables such a quick process! The key to a good stir-fry means that it shouldn’t take more than 10-15 minutes to cook. You’ll want to thinly slice your vegetables and proteins, to make sure they cook in a short amount of time.
One of my favorite ways to incorporate carrots is by using a vegetable peeler to peel ribbons of fresh carrots. Not only does it look gorgeous, but they cook in about two minutes, tops!
Choose your protein wisely, meaning make sure it’s a quick cooking protein! Some stir-fry protein recommendations:
- Shrimp
- Thinly sliced chicken breast
- Fresh white fish, cubed
- Thinly sliced beef
- Firm tofu, cubed
Flavorful and packed with fresh vegetables, this stir-fry should be on your table every week!

Was the winner of the Anolon giveaway announced?
I’d use these everyday, since I do A LOT of cooking (a passion of mine). My first dish I’d make in them to celebrate winning would be my own scrumptous Salsa Verde Crema Deer. You brown deer meat (or stew meat) with some chopped onion. Then you throw in cream cheese and green salsa and heat til cheese melts. Serve over rice or noodles, and its just oh so good!! Darn….made my mouth water there…
Yummers…Gotta try this dish. Love those under 15 minute meals. Any more you could post? The pots and skillets look AMAZING! Anolon certainly is great. Loving the one I have.
Well I will finally have pans that can go in the OVEN!! Ill use it to make my favorite…Chicken Piccata
Beautiful set, Nelly! I think my Wiener Schnitzels would love to be prepared in one of those skillets:)
I plan on cooking seafood alfredo, stir fried, pork chops, and just about anything you can think of. I love cooking and trying new things from time to time. Would love to have these new pots and pans in my kitchen!
I would make a feast for sure! That recipe above looks so pretty and delicious. You always have such amazing food.
Would love to make new recepes to my husband on these!
Yum. Bet it makes the house smell good too. Any idea for what to sub for the soy sauce, as that I cannot eat?
Spaetzle, with guyere and bacon…. Yummers!!! or Parmesan coated pork chops….
This is just beautiful
so vibrant! I am loving this recipe
Breakfast ~ Lunch ~ Supper ~ Dinner ~ Snacks ~ Brunch! Seriously, I’ve never had decent cookware even though I love to cook. These would make a difference in the final dish, whatever it might be. This time of year, I’d love to have that nice big pot for soups and stock.
sancocho, risotto, cranberry-brown sugar glaze for ham, pork chops, veggie curry…
Everything! Just Everything!
I need a bigger and better pan in which to make risotto. So, that’s what I would make.
Anything and everything – my damaged pans really need to be replaced. It would be so nice to not have warped pans that the lids don’t fit on!
I would like to make fajitas

I’d love to try the Orange Ginger Shrimp Stir-Fry!
I would love to make *anything* in these gorgeous pans — caramelized onions for French onion soup, seared pork chops, stir-fry — the list goes on.
I told some friends yesterday that orange was going to be my go to flavor for 2014. Last year it was lemon. Can’t wait to try the recipe. That is an awesome set of cookware, that I would love to have.

I want to try it asap!
This recipe looks sooo yummy! I Think I might be doing it pretty soon!!
I would slowly caramelize onions for a dip
I’d use those daily! Tonight it’s posole, tomorrow meatballs.
You have outdone yourself! I love making Stir Fry especially with shrimp

Stir fry is my favorite. I would make up some incredible meal – or maybe share some of the pots with my niece who is just starting out.
Mmmmmm….I love a good stir-fry!! Orange and ginger are the perfect combo!

I love shrimp, oranges, and ginger! What a great combination! I’ve copied this recipe for my meal planning. Thank you.

OH my gosh, my husband would flip over this. I need to try it out on him.
The spicy sweet chicken stir fry looks good! As does your orange ginger shrimp!
You are right, this should be on my table each week! I love the combination of orange and ginger!
This looks amazing!
I’m not a shrimp fan but this is such a gorgeous stir-fry! Love the carrot ribbons.
