I can’t believe this Autumn and Winter loving gal is going to say this, but I am loving that spring is here. I’m SOOO ready for it and seeing everything blooming around Vegas is making me happy.
But, while pretty flowers and the leaves filling in on our trees is great and all, I am more excited about my favorite fruits and vegetables coming into season again — like asparagus. It’s one of my big-time favorites!
Usually, asparagus is an easy side dish in our house — our go-to is our Oven Roasted Lemon Asparagus — but having it as a main dish, especially it in the springtime, is a great way to have it too.
One of the very best main dish recipes with asparagus is our Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry with Lemon Sauce recipe. It’s quick and easy, it’s bursting with lemon flavor, and it’s healthy too. You completely win with this recipe.
One of my favorite things about this stir fry is that it has equal amounts of shrimp AND asparagus — 1 pound of each. I also purposely keep it with use asparagus and no additional vegetables. Of course, you can change it up if you’d like, but I make other stir fry’s with lots of different veggies, so I like that this one has a short ingredient list.
You’ll first need to make sure your shrimp is peeled and deveined. I use the OXO Good Grips Shrimp Cleaner for this task – it makes it so much easier.
The shrimp is cooked first, in a frying pan, and then removed from the pan and set aside while the asparagus cooks. Towards the end, a bit of minced garlic is added, as well as some ginger (I used Gourmet Garden Ginger Paste, which makes this meal even easier).
It’s really hard for me to pick the main star in this recipe. The shrimp? The asparagus? As much as I love both, I think the happy lemon sauce is what makes this stir fry standout. We’re crazy about the flavor of this sauce, which is also great for using with a chicken stir fry.
After the sauce is poured into the frying pan and combined with the shrimp and asparagus, it will thicken up and dinner is ready to be served!
Would you believe that it will only take you 30 minutes or less to make this fresh and delicious springtime dinner? Yep! It’s so easy and just another example of how great food memories — for asparagus eaters, that is — can be made without spending all day in the kitchen.

Shrimp and Asparagus Stir Fry with Lemon Sauce Recipe
- 4 tablespoons olive oil (divided)

Excellent! Add red pepper flakes and serve over rice or orzo.
Deborah G Heise says
This is a very tasty and easy recipe. I saluted these veggies sliced celery, yellow peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, tomato and topped it with green onions to the already ingredients to make a bigger meal. For my hubby, whose not on the paleo diet I served his portion over rice.
★★★★★
Kayelle says
We really enjoyed this recipe, and it gave me another chance to use one of my Meyer lemons. I added a whole sliced red bell pepper to the mix, and the combo of colors (and flavors) were spectacular. I served it over steamed Jasmine rice and topped each plate with candied sliced almonds.
★★★★★
Cecilia Johnson says
Oh, so delicious! Just 2 of us, so I halved the recipe.
★★★★★
Carmen says
The sauce is bursting with flavors of ginger, lemon and garlic! Quick and easy with ingredients on hand. A winner!
★★★★★
Manuela says
This recipe is LEGIT!!! I didn’t have soy sauce but it honestly didn’t even need it at the end. So flavorful. I served over coconut jasmine rice. Oh and I had fresh ginger that I minced to use in place of the ginger paste. This is amazing!!!!!
★★★★★
Kristi says
Fantastic! Made it as listed and it was simple, quick and so good. Will be adding to our regular dinner rotation – thanks!!
★★★★★
Amille says
I’ve made this recipe almost weekly since I discovered it on Pinterest. My husband and I love it!!!i I make it with a side of yellow Spanish rice. I’m going to do same recipe, but use chunks of chicken breasts next time😋
★★★★★
Claudia says
I prepared the recipe as written – it was incredibly good! I plan on making it often
★★★★★
Christian Parella says
Forgot that I used fresh ginger. I keep the ginger in the freezer and just grate what I need. A lot easier when frozen to grate! Also forgot the “h” in why no red pepper flakes that the wife doesn’t like “heat” not eat!! We both eat as healthy as we can and this recipe is one of my go to recipes.
★★★★★
Christian Parella says
I have made this dish MANY times and tweaked each time. I do not use the lemon zest as it seems too bitter to me. I always double or triple the ingredients so there is leftovers. I make more sauce than it calls for so it soaks into the brown rice I serve it over. In the sauce, I use half as much sugar as it calls for and find it is better at bringing out the lemon flavor. I also use coconut amino in place of soy sauce and find it way less salty. I think the red pepper flakes would make it just perfect, but Wife doesn’t like the eat, so I omit it.
I love some of the other replacement items that others have used and can’t wait to try some of their ideas. Thanks for such a flavorful and healthy recipe! I also omit any added salt.
★★★★★
Steph says
This was so delicious and easy. I didn’t change a thing except I did not have any ginger paste so my hack was 1/8t ground ginger. You could probably use any type of protein such as chicken or a mild fish if you didn’t like shrimp. Would def make again.
★★★★★
Carolyn says
Made this for supper this evening – fairly quick & easy, and very good. Yes, I think roasting the asparagus first may give it an added dimension. Might try that next time.
Sheri says
This looks amazing! Thanks for sharing at To Grandma’s House We Go DIY, Crafts, Recipes and More Link Party. I pinned this! Hope to have you join again next week. Have a great day!
Clearissa Coward says
This is wonderful! I will be trying this. I love both shrimp and asparagus so it should be a win, win. I am pinning for later so I can make the lemon sauce. TFS with #OMHGWW
Village Bakery says
Thanks for this, Brandie. Going to make this Sunday for the Super Bowl
★★★★★
Tim says
To make it more colorful I used white , green and black asparagus. Other than that it was pretty amazing
★★★★★
Debbie says
This was good. I cut the recipe in half as I only needed 2 helpings but made the full amount of the lemon sauce. I served it over white rice. I liked it quick to make, but I think next time I will add some red pepper, needed a kick.
★★★★
Shirli says
This was very good, I served it over Orzo. My husband thought the lemon eas too strong – I didn’t. For him I will use just a little less lemon juice next time.
★★★★★
Jessi says
Such a delicious and simple recipie! I followed the recipie to the T except for ginger which I had forgot when I was at the store! There were no leftovers to be had! Thanks for such s great recipie
★★★★★
Chris says
This recipe is excellent. Fresh tasting and healthy. As a former chef I tinker with recipes so I added some fresh parsley and chives from my garden and some roasted corn from the grill. It gave it a fresher flavor. I did not add any salt as the recipe calls for since the shrimp and soy sauce have plenty of salt already.
Kathy says
I really liked this dish and will make it again. I used Stevia instead of sugar and I think next time I’m going to put a little more cornstarch in the sauce to make it thicker. I like thick sauce.
★★★★
Laurie says
Loved it, the lemon really gave it a great taste.
Elizabeth says
We made this last night an absolutely loved it! The lemon flavor was really unique but went really well with the asparagus and shrimp. We served everything over brown rice and I cant wait to have the leftovers again for dinner tonight. The next time we make this we might try it with chicken and broccoli.
★★★★★
Anne says
I made this on a night I needed a quick dinner and was thrilled with the results. I used frozen shrimp and since I only had half a pound of asparagus, I added half a pound of thinly sliced carrots. Finished with a sprinkle of crushed red pepper. Delish!
Nicole humbert says
This dish came out excellent I added more garlic
★★★★★
Jill says
I never comment on recipes I try but this was so so so amazing that I just had. My husband and I loved so much that we will probably have again tomorrow and put it over rice. Few things I switched up… I cooked the shrimp in lemon juice instead of oil. (Poured the lemon juice out of the pan before adding the asparagus). Also added the garlic right when I put in the asparagus.
★★★★★
Felicia says
Easy to make and very good. I used about half the shrimp and asparagus, but followed the recipe for the lemon sauce, which gave me little ‘juice’ as I served this over jasmine rice. I will make it again with other light vegetables and chicken and add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
★★★★★
Irene says
This recipe is super easy and just delicious!!!! I added some mushrooms and shallots and it was fabulous…. will definitely be making this again and again….. Enjoy

I made this tonight. Husband and I loved it. The lemon sauce was sooooo good! Quick and easy. Bonus points for only using one skillet for entire recipe. I will definitely make this one again.
Riggs says
Great recipe! I did this last night. I couldn´t find large shrimps so I ended up buying small ones, however I overlooked that adding more shimps to make the 1lb would require additional seasoning! My advice is if you use small shrimps double the salt, pepper, and I added ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper (doubled that too).
Another tip, remove the shrimps after cooking but leave the juices in the frying pan so you dont end up with a dry dish.
I couldn´t find asparagus at my supermarket so I used broccoli instead -delicious!

How many people would you say this recipe typically feeds? I don’t see amount of servings listed anywhere and me and 2 other girlfriends are planning to make this tonight.
Thanks!

Hi Meg! This would serve 3-4 people.

If you complement with rice you can feed up to 4 with regular size portions. If you serve generously then it will serve 3.

Tamika says
on the picture, it looks like there is red pepper flakes sprinkled on top. but I do not see it on the ingredients list. Also, what would be a great side dish?
Araceli says
Made this for dinner today!!! Yummmm! Nice meal that won’t break the diet 😉 I replaced the sugar with honey and I might have slightly done too much cornstarch, but the thickened as of sauce did not affect the taste! Will be one of my go to recipes 🙂
Belinda says
Making this tonight! Can’t wait!!
★★★★
Shelby says
This was delicious! I added extra veggies (onion, tomato & zucchini) with the asparagus that were left overs from the night before, everything turned out great! I like garlic on pretty much everything so next time I will add that too. Thanks for the wonderful recipe 🙂
★★★★★
Rachel says
Made this tonight! Fairly saucy – next time I’ll probably bump up the cornstarch a bit, but for now I have some rice to the rescue. It’s got good flavor. Actually added a splash of balsamic vinegar, which added a nice tang to it in addition to the lemon .
★★★★
Sandra says
Why did mine come out sooooooo runny? Looks nothing like your pic & nothing like stir fry. I feel that just how it looks in the picture, you should write the recipe. If you grilled the shrimp, state that…and how in the world did yours turn out with no sauce?
Very disappointed.
brandie says
Hi Sandra,
I’m not sure why yours turned out runny; I would suggest cooking the sauce a bit longer to allow it to thicken. As for the shrimp, I cook mine as explained in the instructions (not grilled, but sauteed on my stove top in my frying pan). Also, my shrimp and asparagus is lightly coated with the sauce.
Sherry says
Made this for Supper tonight and I was not disappointed. This meal will be in the rotation for sure! Delish!

Brittany Scholler says
This looks great and I plan on making it tonight! I do have one silly question though- Do you just take off the shrimp tails while eating the dish or take them all off before you add it into the asparagus?
brandie says
Not a silly question! If I buy shrimp on tails, we usually leave the shrimp tails on and take them off while eating. But, I’ve bought ones without tails and used those or you could certainly remove them beforehand. Whichever you prefer.
Christine says
Super tasty! I added a squirt of sriracha sauce on top for a little zing!

Christina says
Even though this didn’t turn out perfectly for me, I’m definitely saving this recipe. I don’t think I had enough asparagus and mine ended up a little too saucy. But over rice, it was perfect. I also use already cooked shrimp, which I’m pretty sure I overcooked a bit. Now knowing my mistakes, I’ll be remaking this. The flavor is delicious and it’s decently healthy.

brandie says
Hi Bonnie,
I’m really not sure — you could try agave nectar or honey. But if you want absolutely no sweeteners, you could try skipping it altogether. I don’t know exactly how it would taste as I find a bit of sweetener is necessary. Thank you for visiting and commenting!

Hi Brandie,
I love this dish! I’m with you – I’m all about asparagus in the Spring. In fact, shrimp and asparagus are two of my favourite combos – I even do a pizza with them, along with tomatoes and pineapples, lol.
