Thai food is one of the ultimate forms of comfort food in my book! This is one of the easiest Whole30 recipes that comes together in just 15 minutes. You can enjoy it over white rice, rice noodles, caulrice for a keto, Whole30, or paleo option, or eat it alone! You could also add in 1 cup of chicken broth and turn this into a soup, instead 🙂 So many options! Don’t feel like you need to stick with shrimp either – chicken, beef, or no meat for a vegan option are all equally delicious.
I used frozen shrimp (that I thawed in a colander under cold running water for 5-7 minutes) as well as the Stir Fry pre-cut veggie mix from Trader Joe’s for this, but you can add in whatever veggies you prefer.
The remaining ingredients are staples that I like to keep in my pantry and fridge. You can get all of them on Thrive Market, which is an online discounter grocery retailer for healthier items! Using these links will get you 25% off your first order, as well. I get my Thai Red Curry Paste, Native Forest Coconut Milk, Red Boat Fish Sauce, and Coconut Aminos from here (or the big thing of it from Costco!)- saves time and money which makes this busy mama happy! They have a ton of other paleo pantry staples, as well.
You can also use many of the same ingredients to make my Chinese Turkey Stir Fry, too!
Thai Coconut Curry Shrimp Bowls

I’d like to know how long this would keep after cooking (for leftovers)
It will stay good in the fridge for up to 4 days!
