Ingredients
- 450g large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 45ml chili crispor more to taste
- 15ml soy sauce
- 5ml sriracha or use chili-garlic sauce or your favorite hot sauce
- 5ml honey
- 5ml fresh ginger, grated
- 30ml vegetable oil
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- Garnish: Chopped green onion or fresh cilantro, chili flakes
Instructions
- Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl and incorporate 1 tablespoon of chili crisp, soy sauce, sriracha, honey, and grated ginger. Stir thoroughly and let sit for 15 minutes to marinate.
- Warm the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until it releases its aroma.
- Introduce the shrimp to the pan, arranging them in a single layer, and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they change to a pink hue and are fully cooked.
- Take the pan off the heat and mix in the remaining chili crisp, ensuring the shrimp are well-coated.
- Move to a serving plate and add garnish. This dish pairs wonderfully with cooked rice or noodles, but is also delightful on its own.
Notes
- Adjust the level of spiciness by adding more chili crisp or sriracha to the marinade to suit your taste.
- Cook the shrimp carefully to avoid toughness – they cook quickly and should not be left on the heat for too long.
- Enhance the dish with garnishes like chopped green onion, fresh cilantro, or chili flakes for added flavor and visual appeal.
