Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeds removed and cut in thin strips
1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
5 scallions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup packed curly kale, stemmed and hand torn
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, rice wine vinegar, ginger and crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or wok over high heat. Add the bell peppers and stir until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Scoot the peppers to the edge of the pan, creating an opening in the center.
  • Add the shrimp in a single layer to the center of the pan and cook until just beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add three-quarters of your scallions (hold back the rest for garnishing at the end) and stir everything together.
  • Add the kale and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Next, pour in the sauce and allow it to bubble and thicken in the pan while stirring, about 1 minute. The sauce should really cling to the shrimp and vegetables. Remove from the heat.
  • Sprinkle everything with the cilantro and mint and stir to combine. Garnish with more red pepper flakes and the remaining scallions before serving.

Firecracker Shrimp Recipe image

This firecracker shrimp recipe makes the best firecracker shrimp, with just the right combination of sweet, heat and awesome flavor, ready in minutes!

Provided by Mike Hultquist

Categories     Appetizer     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup chili-garlic sauce
2 tablespoons spicy chili oil
1 tablespoon sriracha
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon cayenne (use paprika for milder, or ghost pepper flakes for hotter!)
1 teaspoon lime juice
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 tablespoon olive oil
FOR GARNISH: Fresh chopped parsley (spicy chili flakes, sliced hot peppers)

Steps:

  • Whisk together the chili-garlic sauce, chili oil, sriracha, vinegar, honey, cayenne, lime juice and a bit of salt and pepper together in a small bowl until mixed. This is your firecracker shrimp marinade and glaze.
  • Add the shrimp to a large bowl and add half of firecracker shrimp marinade. Toss to evenly coat the shrimp. Refrigerate for 5 to 10 minutes, though you can cook immediately if desired.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan to medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of peppers: This recipe calls for three different types of peppers - Fresno, serrano, and bell pepper. Using a variety of peppers will give your shrimp a more complex flavor. If you don't have all three types of peppers, you can substitute one type for another, or use a different type of pepper altogether. Just be sure to adjust the amount of pepper you use to taste.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp, be sure not to overcrowd the pan. If you do, the shrimp will steam instead of sear, and they won't be as flavorful. Cook the shrimp in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just cooked through: Overcooked shrimp are tough and chewy. Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Spicy three-pepper shrimp is best served immediately, while the shrimp are still hot and crispy. You can serve them over rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Spicy three-pepper shrimp is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. The combination of spicy peppers, sweet bell pepper, and savory shrimp is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy seafood dish, give spicy three-pepper shrimp a try!
