Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar or 2 teaspoons Splenda sugar substitute
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons arrowroot
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons flour (just enough to very lightly coat the shrimp)
3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1 medium red pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1 medium green pepper, cored and thinly sliced
1/2 large red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pineapple chunk

Steps:

  • Combine the sauce ingredients and set aside.
  • Coat the shrimp very lightly with flour and shake off excess.
  • Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large wok, set over medium-high heat. Saute the shrimp in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes.

  • Add the shrimp, warm and serve.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili sauce or adding some sweetness to balance it out.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used a different type of shrimp and added some vegetables to the stir-fry. It turned out great!

The shrimp were a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the shrimp for a shorter amount of time.

The sauce was too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar or adding some acidity to balance it out.
