Garlic-Sauteed Shrimp
July, 2001

Serves 4 / I always keep some shrimp in my freezer—they are ideal for last-minute meals. Even better, shrimp, like other shellfish, are low in saturated fat. Most shrimp sold in stores have been "flash-frozen." If a shrimp is pink, it's been cooked, so it probably has lost most of its flavor. Look for gray or white raw shrimp. Serve this dish with noodles, steamed rice or as filling for roll-ups.

MARINADE
2 tablespoons ginger tamari
1/2 tablespoon cooking wine
1 teaspoon sesame oil

SHRIMP
1 pound medium raw shrimp, shelled and deveined
2-1/2 tablespoons cooking oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup thinly shredded leeks, white part only
1 medium red bell pepper, julienned
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons toasted black sesame seeds

1. Combine marinade ingredients in medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
2. Heat 1-1/2 tablespoons oil in nonstick wok or cooking pan over medium-high heat. Swirl to coat pan. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add shrimp. Stir-fry until pink, about 1-2 minutes. Remove shrimp and place in medium bowl.
3. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in wok. Add leeks and bell peppers. Stir-fry until peppers soften, about 1 minute. Return shrimp to wok and stir-fry until heated through.

There are some good products that he has recommended such as CLA, but if he doesn't show a specific brand people will not buy it. We do not carry Safslim for example but regular CLA 1000mg per soft-gel which is just as good and has been effective for hundreds of our customers just fine, but since DR OZ didn't okay this specific brand they won't get it, even though it is the same thing but more cost effective!
