Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 red Fresno chile or jalapeno, half minced, half thinly sliced
3 teaspoons toasted (dark) sesame oil
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 bunch scallions, finely chopped
1 pound prepared pizza dough, at room temperature
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound peeled, cooked shrimp, for dipping

Steps:

  • Stir together the chili sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, the minced chile, 2 teaspoons of the sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Pour into a small serving bowl and top with the sliced chile. Set aside to let the flavors blend.
  • Meanwhile, make the flatbread: Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the sesame seeds. Cook, stirring, until toasted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and reserve the skillet. Add the scallions and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil to the bowl and set aside. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/8-inch thick. Sprinkle with the scallion mixture and salt and fold in half like a book. Press the halves together with your fingers and then roll the dough out again until it is 1/8-inch thick. Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces. Stretch and roll each piece until very thin, pinching the edges together to keep the filling from spilling out. When the dough is thin enough, you should be able to see the filling through the dough. The pieces should be 7 to 8 inches in diameter, although they need not be perfectly round.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the canola oil over medium-high heat in the same skillet. When very hot, add a piece of the dough and cook, turning once, until it is puffed and cooked through and has some charred spots, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining pieces of dough, adding more canola oil as needed to just lightly coat the bottom of the skillet and reducing the heat if the dough starts to burn before it cooks through. Cut the flatbreads into pieces and serve with the dip and cooked shrimp.

JAPANESE RESTAURANT SHRIMP SAUCE



Japanese Restaurant Shrimp Sauce image

We love the shrimp sauce at our local Japanese restaurant and I've worked from several recipes, adding my own tweaks and changes until I have found the right flavor for us. My husband says mine is better than the restaurant. :o) I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It's wonderful with shrimp and veggies but also with chicken and steak! Do NOT substitute the Hellman's for some other kind of mayo. It makes a difference in the final product!

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons soy sauce, I use low sodium soy sauce

Steps:

  • Mix the butter with the paprika, garlic powder, sugar and salt, then add remaining ingredients (in a bowl with a tight-fitting lid).
  • Shake until combined thoroughly.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
  • You may want to add a bit of water to thin it out, not too much or you will dilute the flavors.
  • Shake well and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality Japanese soy sauce.
  • If you don't have mirin, you can substitute dry sherry or white wine.
  • Use freshly grated ginger and garlic for the best results.
  • Add a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the lemon juice.
  • Serve the dipping sauce immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
