How to Store the Low-Carb Shrimp Stir-Fry with Broccoli

To prevent bacterial growth, ensure the leftovers are stored in an airtight container or tightly wrapped in plastic wrap. It should be eaten within 3 to 4 days to ensure that it is safe to consume.

You can use a microwave, stovetop, or oven when reheating the stir fry. If using a microwave, heat the stir fry for 1-2 minutes until it is heated. If using a stovetop or oven, heat the stir fry in a skillet or baking dish until heated. Make sure to stir occasionally to avoid burning the stir fry.

Note: Since seafood tends to spoil quickly, consuming the shrimp stir fry within a day or two of making it is best. Also, store it in the refrigerator below 40°F (4°C) to prevent bacterial growth.
