How grateful I am that I did a ton of batch-cooking and meal prep before baby came so I could have tasty treats like this gluten free Chinese five spice shrimp stir fry sheet pan dinner! I’ve already shared a few of my other sheet pan creations with you that I created in anticipation of babe.

As if stir fry wasn’t easy enough- now it is a one pan wonder that you DON’T have to babysit.
How to Make Gluten Free Chinese Five Spice Shrimp Stir Fry Sheet Pan Dinner
This recipe is surprisingly simple to pull off. I make a quickie sauce packed with big bold flavours like ginger, sesame oil and my go-to, Chinese Five Spice!! Then I toss whatever veggies I’ve got in the fridge and some thawed frozen shrimp with the sauce and spread everything out onto the baking sheet.
Feel free to double, triple or quadruple the serving if you’re planning to batch cook and freeze this bad boy. This gluten free Chinese five spice shrimp stir fry sheet pan dinner has become one of my all-time favourite meals, and I’m not just saying that because I’m a totally sleep deprived momma. I still have serious standards when it comes to food, I don’t care how tired I get. Feel free to use this sauce and swap out the protein or veggies. It’s delicious with tofu or chicken, as well!

I’ve never thought to do stir fry on a sheet pan before! So excited to try this tonight with tofu and all the veggies in my fridge I need to use up.
But the big question is what is Chinese five spice?? I thought you were going to tell us how you made that spice blend or what was in it. I’ve never heard of it before!
Abbey Sharp says
You can get it in the spices aisle at the grocery store but its basically a blend of fennel, anise seed, ginger, licorice root, cinnamon, and cloves 🙂
