Stir-Fried Shrimp, Chinese Style image

From the Frugal Gourmet, Jeff Smith. This is a simple appetizer recipe that Jeff created because he was inspired by a similar recipe he had eaten in San Francisco. It's an easy fix! You will have to peel and eat, so make sure to have plenty of napkins!

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb large shrimp, raw and in shells
1 tablespoon light soy sauce (I like to use low-sodium)
1/2 tablespoon dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 green onions, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Marinate the shrimp, in shells, for about 15 minutes in the soy sauce, sherry, and ginger. Drain.
  • Stir-fry in a hot pan (on med. high heat) with the peanut oil and garlic until the color of the shrimp changes to pink.
  • Add the green onions, salt and sesame oil. Toss until the onions barely wilt.
  • Serve hot and let guests remove the shells right at the table!

This dish is a great way to use up leftover rice. I often make a big batch of rice on the weekend, and then I use the leftovers to make this stir-fried shrimp dish during the week.

I'm a vegetarian, but I still enjoyed this dish. I simply omitted the shrimp and added tofu instead.

I love the addition of snow peas in this dish. They add a nice crunch and sweetness. I also like to add other vegetables, such as broccoli or carrots.
