Szechuan Shrimp
Ingredients
Sauce
Shrimp and veggies
Instructions
Mix ketchup, chili sauce rice wine, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper flakes, and corn starch in small bowl to make sauce.
Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add oil and swirl it around. When the oil shimmers, add the garlic and ginger. Stir fry for about 30 seconds, then add the green onions.
Push veggies to one side and add shrimp. Sear on one side for about a minute, then turn over. Reduce heat to low when shimp is no longer pink. Add a little water to the pan (if needed) to keep food from sticking.
Mix the veggies with the shrimp, stir the sauce, and add the sauce to the pan. The mixture will thicken quickly, so add a little water if needed to loosen the sauce.
Remove from heat and serve over steamed rice.
