How to make Shrimp and Mushroom Stir-Fry with Kimchi
Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the mushrooms and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook 8 to 11 minutes, stirring every minute or two so they can brown.
Lower the heat to medium. Add the shrimp, kimchi, brine and sesame oil. Stir for 2 to 4 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque throughout. Finish with cilantro and taste before adding more salt.
