Steps:
- Gather your ingredients.
- For the shrimp: Combine the peppers, salt and 5-spice powder in a small bowl or ramekin. Crush the garlic with a hard whack of the knife placed flat over the cloves and hitting them with the heel of your hand. Peel away the skins and clean away the hard root ends. Peel and grate or slice or chop the ginger root. Core and quarter the lettuce and reserve half for another use. Shred the remaining lettuce very thinly and line a platter with it.
- Heat the oil, 2 slow turns of the pan, in a large, shallow nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the garlic and swirl. Add shrimp and cook, tossing the shrimp until pink and opaque or firm, 4 to 5 minutes. Add Shaoxing or alternative and lime juice and swirl to absorb into shrimp, 1 minute. Top with scallions. Slide the shrimp onto the lettuce.
- For the chicken and rice: Heat the water for rice in a 3-quart saucepot to a boil. Salt water, add rice and reduce heat to simmer. Cook rice covered for 15 minutes, shaking pan occasionally. Turn off heat and fluff with fork.
- Cut chicken into large bite-size pieces. Pop skins of garlic and halve the cloves. Peel ginger with tip of a teaspoon. Julienne the ginger into thin sticks or very thinly slice it into rounds.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil, garlic and ginger; do not let them brown, swirl constantly a minute or 2. Then add the chicken and tuck the garlic and ginger in between. Let the chicken brown 3 to 4 minutes. Turn, add rice wine, dark and light soy sauces, light brown sugar and scallions and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and braise about 12 minutes.
- Uncover the chicken and raise heat to thicken sauce a bit. Add basil to serve.
- Serve the chicken from the pan and transfer the rice to a bowl.

Steps:
- In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, rice wine vinegar, ginger and crushed red pepper flakes.
- Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or wok over high heat. Add the bell peppers and stir until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Scoot the peppers to the edge of the pan, creating an opening in the center.
- Add the shrimp in a single layer to the center of the pan and cook until just beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add three-quarters of your scallions (hold back the rest for garnishing at the end) and stir everything together.
- Add the kale and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Next, pour in the sauce and allow it to bubble and thicken in the pan while stirring, about 1 minute. The sauce should really cling to the shrimp and vegetables. Remove from the heat.

Steps:
- Peel the peppers, core and seed them. Cut away any white pith inside the peppers and cut them into narrow 1 1/2" strips.
- Peel and thinly slice the garlic. Put it with the olive oil in a 12" skillet and place over medium high heat. As soon as the garlic begins to sizzle, add the peppers. Season lightly with salt and cook until the peppers are tender, about 10 minutes. Do not stir too often so that the peppers will have a chance to brown lightly.
- While the peppers are cooking, peel the tomatoes and coarsely chop. When the peppers are done, add the tomatoes to the pan. Season them lightly with salt and cook until the tomatoes have reduced and are no longer watery, about 10 minutes.
- While the tomatoes are cooking, peel and devein the shrimp.
- Chop enough of the oregano leaves to measure 1 teaspoon and add it to the tomatoes along with the capers. Cook for about 30 seconds, then add the shrimp and season with salt before stirring them inches Cook the shrimp just until they are pink through and through, 2-3 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp.
- Clean the shrimp properly. Remove the heads, shells, and tails from the shrimp. Rinse the shrimp under cold running water and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Marinate the shrimp. Marinating helps to tenderize the shrimp and imparts flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs.
- Cook the shrimp over high heat. This will help to sear the shrimp and prevent them from becoming tough.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on them. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp are best served hot off the grill or out of the pan. You can garnish them with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a dipping sauce.
