Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and sesame oil to make the shrimp marinade.

Add shrimp to the marinade and let sit for 10 minutes.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are fully cooked and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

Prepare the peanut sauce by whisking together peanut butter, coconut milk, brown sugar, water, and sriracha (if using). Adjust seasoning to taste.

Set up a workspace with a large bowl of warm water, laying out the rice paper wraps and the prepared vegetables, herbs, cooked shrimp, and rice noodles.

Step 6

Dip one rice paper wrap into the warm water for 10-15 seconds until soft and pliable.

Step 7

Place the softened rice paper on a clean surface. Add a small portion of shrimp, carrots, cucumber, red bell pepper, cilantro, mint, and rice noodles in the center.

Step 8

Fold the bottom of the rice paper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to form a wrap.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining rice paper wraps and ingredients.

Step 10

Serve the Thai shrimp wraps with the peanut sauce on the side for dipping. Garnish with crushed peanuts if desired.
