  • Place frozen shrimp in a single layer on a metal pan and set aside.
  • Combine coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, and sesame oil in a large skillet. Bring to a boil over medium heat, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add shrimp to the boiling sauce in a single layer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook until shrimp curls into a "C" shape and changes color from white and pink, 2 to 3 minutes.
