Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 lb extra large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 large shallots, finely chopped
5 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic salt (can be adjusted according to taste)
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp crushed red chili flakes
1/2 tsp pepper, finely ground
2 Tbsp oyster sauce (in the asian aisle at grocery store)
1 lb fresh broccoli (chopped) or green beans

Steps:

1. Mix all ingredients by hand in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
2. Add 1 tsp of olive oil to a wok or heavy non-stick pan. Heat over high heat until oil is very hot.
3. Add shrimp and stir quickly otherwise shallots and garlic will burn. Cook until shrimp are pink in color and firm to the touch. Approximately 3-4 minutes depending on how large your shrimp are. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Add 1 tsp of olive oil to remnants in pan. Add fresh broccoli pieces or green beans and stir fry until bright green in color and remove from heat. Serve with jasmine rice or couscous.

Tips:

Use fresh, large shrimp. Smaller shrimp will cook too quickly and become tough.
Devein and peel the shrimp before cooking. This will make them easier to eat.
Marinate the shrimp in a flavorful mixture before cooking. This will help to infuse them with flavor and prevent them from becoming dry.
Use a hot wok when cooking the shrimp. This will help to sear them quickly and evenly.
Do not overcrowd the wok. This will prevent the shrimp from cooking evenly.
Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink. Overcooking will make them tough.
Serve the shrimp immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Spicy wok-seared shrimp is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. The shrimp are marinated in a flavorful mixture of spices and then cooked in a hot wok until they are just opaque and pink. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
