SHRIMP WITH LOBSTER SAUCE



Shrimp with Lobster Sauce image

This Chinese-American dish got its name because the sauce is often used to dress lobster. This is an adaptation of a dish I grew up with. My father used to make this after discovering it at our local American Chinese restaurant. Shrimp and lobster sauce is a similar simplified version of his Chinatown favorite, Lobster Cantonese. His rendition was the addition of ground pork like his Chinatown favorite.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 thin slices fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
Jasmine rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Combine the shrimp, soy sauce, ginger and white pepper in a medium bowl.

1 egg white
2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
