i don't see why not, you'd just have to maybe put them in last so they wouldn't be overcooked

yeah they'll just heat faster than bigger shrimp

maybe see if you can find a time for how long tiny shrimp should cook for and alter the recipe accordingly

As a person who has fussed with tiny shrimp stirfry before, I back up chocoballs and yinza here. They will become very rubbery and even SMOLLER in nanoseconds. I would honestly do it where you do the veg with a bit of extra sauce and actually mix in the shrimp and let it heat/infuse with the residual heat from the cook in a separate bowl.

And to make sure it warms through on the tiny shrimp, I'd be like.... 'take off heat, stir in shrimp, cover' sort of deal.probably. o.-

IT OCCURS TO ME to make a note that if you buy your tinyshrimp frozen please make sure to dethaw before using my suggestions!

I sometimes confuse 'thaw' and 'defrost' and say 'dethaw' and... yeah that is misleading haha

I mean, you aren't the only one to confuse the two, to the point that "dethaw" is listed in the dictionary with that exact note on it

I assume the tiny frozen shrimp are pre-cooked, in which case I would think you could probably just kind of fold them into your stir fry a few times shortly before you plan to take it off the heat

but this is also why I get medium shrimp because they can usually go into the meal at a reasonable period of time with the rest of the stuff, and it makes being lazy easier

because yeah... agreed that they'll get rubbery if cooked too long

everything tastes better as leftovers anyway, and you can freeze rice, so you could probably freeze this in a ziploc freezer bag and reheat at a future date
Pen Again

but tbh there is never too much rice or too many shrimp

if you freeze it, portion it out before freezing though, just so you don't have to thaw more than a single meal at a time
