Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you're using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking. Overcooked shrimp are tough and rubbery.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the shrimp from sticking.
  • Add the garlic and ginger towards the end of cooking. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp are best served hot and fresh.
