Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 sized 16 to 20 count shrimp ((or 12 ounces / 340 grams of whatever shrimp you have on hand; peeled, deveined, and butterflied))
10 ounces broccoli florets ((285g))
1/2 cup low sodium chicken stock ((120 ml, warmed))
1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar ((or brown sugar))
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 cloves garlic ((chopped))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch ((mixed with 2 tablespoons water into a cornstarch slurry))

Steps:

  • First, prepare the shrimp and broccoli. Next, in a medium pot, set 4 cups of water to a boil. While that's happening, mix the chicken stock, sugar, soy sauces, oyster sauce, sesame oil and white pepper and set aside.
  • Blanch the broccoli for 30 seconds. Remove and drain. Let the water return to a boil, and blanch the shrimp for 15 seconds. Remove and drain. The shrimp will be about 60-70% cooked.
  • Heat the wok over high heat. Pour 2 tablespoons of canola oil around the perimeter of the wok, stir in the garlic, and add the Shaoxing wine. Next, add the chicken stock mixture. Bring the sauce up to a boil, and add the shrimp and broccoli back to the wok.
  • Once everything comes to a boil, drizzle in the cornstarch slurry until the sauce thickens and starts to cling to the shrimp and broccoli. There should not be any standing sauce, although you can adjust this depending on your personal preference. Serve with steamed white rice!

Dried red pepper flakes

1 cup seeded red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch squares
1 scallion, whites thinly sliced, greens, cut into rounds, kept separate
1 pound deveined peeled shrimp, halved
1 clove minced garlic
1 cup thawed frozen peas

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: To save time, prep your veggies and shrimp in advance. Marinating the shrimp beforehand also enhances its flavor. Consider using a food processor to expedite the veggie chopping process.
  • Sauce Consistency: The cornstarch and water mixture should be added gradually to achieve the desired sauce consistency. For a thicker sauce, add more cornstarch; for a thinner sauce, reduce the amount.
  • Temperature Control: Maintain high heat throughout the cooking process to ensure the vegetables remain crisp-tender and the shrimp cooks evenly. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
