Shrimp With Hot Sauce, Szechuan Style image

I've had this recipe many times, varying the vegetable with my mood and with what I had on hand. A little hot oil added to the dish is also a nice touch. Adapted from a recipe by Rose Cheng. In the posted pic, I was in the mood for even more vegetables, so I doubled the sauce when I added those (very easy to do). In that one, besides the carrots, I also used shiitake mushrooms, scallions, bok choy, and bean sprouts. Use whatever types and amounts of veggies you like, just cook them crisp-tender.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said the flavors were amazing and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. I think I'll try making it again with a milder chili sauce next time.

I love the simplicity of this dish. The few ingredients really let the flavors of the shrimp and sauce shine through. I used a mild chili sauce and it was still plenty spicy for me. I will definitely be making this again.
