Heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat in a large frying pan. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cilantro.

I like to serve this over coconut cauliflower rice for a complete meal. While the sauce is thickening, cook some riced cauliflower in a little coconut oil.Or put on a pot of regular rice before you start cooking the shrimp.
