- 1/2 cup carrots
- 16 ounces large shell-on shrimp, uncooked

Preparation
- Dice celery and onion. Slice bell pepper and carrots. Peel and de-vein shrimp.
- Place carrots in a microwave safe dish. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and cook for 3 minutes. Drain.
- Heat both oils in a large nonstick frying pan or wok. Add celery, onion, green bell pepper and drained water chestnuts. Stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add the cooked carrots and heat. Add shrimp and continue to stir and simmer until the shrimp just turns pink, about 2 minutes. Remove frying pan from heat.
