Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons peanut oil
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely grated (see photos below on how to prepare)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons thai sweet red chili sauce
1 tablespoon jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (see note below)
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon soy sauce
4 scallions, green parts only thinly sliced

  • While pan is heating, lay shrimp out on paper towels and pat dry.
  • Add 2 tablespoons peanut oil to pan and heat until sizzling.
  • Add half of the shrimp to the pan (they should be in a single layer) and stir-fry (cook, stirring continuously) until just pink but not cooked through, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Transfer partially cooked shrimp to a plate, then add remaining two tablespoons of peanut oil to pan and heat until sizzling; add remaining shrimp and stir-fry as you did the first batch.

  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp to serving dish.
