Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt
2/3 cup chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons sugar
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, minced (about 2 tablespoons)
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1 scallion, chopped, white and green parts separated
6 ounces snow peas, strings removed if necessary
2 ounces red bell pepper, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
4 cups cooked rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Put the shrimp in a medium bowl with 2 cups cold water and 2 tablespoons kosher salt. Stir to combine and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse the shrimp under cold running water and place them on a paper towel-lined plate. Pat the shrimp with more paper towels to thoroughly dry.
  • Combine the chicken stock, Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and crushed red pepper in a medium bowl. Stir until the cornstarch is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
  • Heat a wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat for 2 minutes. Add the oil to the pan and swirl to coat. Carefully add the shrimp in a single layer. Allow to cook for 2 minutes, using a wooden spoon or spatula to stir-fry them. Add the garlic, ginger and scallion whites and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the snow peas and bell pepper and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the cornstarch mixture and scallion greens and stir-fry until the sauce has thickened, about 15 seconds. Immediately transfer the stir-fry to a dish. Serve with rice.

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound snow peas or sugar snap peas, strings and stems removed
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons vegetable, peanut or canola oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
3 large garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
3 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths, dark green parts separated

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the snow peas or sugar snap peas. Boil 30 seconds, and transfer immediately to the ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, drain and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of the corn starch, 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the rice wine or sherry, 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar. Add the shrimp, and stir together to coat.
  • Place the remaining corn starch, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, sesame oil and sugar in another bowl. Add the stock, and stir together well. Set aside.
  • Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates immediately upon contact. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, and turn the heat to medium. Add the ginger and garlic, and stir together for about 20 seconds, then add the red pepper and the white and light green parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for two to three minutes, until the pepper begins to soften. Stir to the side of the pan. Add the remaining oil and the shrimp. Cook, stirring, for two minutes, stir in the snow peas or snap peas, and continue to stir-fry for another two or three minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Give the sauce a stir, and add it to the pan along with the dark green ends of the scallions. Stir everything together with the sauce until the shrimp and vegetables are lightly glazed. Serve hot, with rice.

Tips:

  • Properly Devein and Clean Shrimp: Ensure the shrimp is deveined and cleaned thoroughly to remove any sand or grit. This will enhance the taste and texture of the dish.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh snow peas will have a crisp texture and vibrant green color, while fresh ginger will provide a pungent, aromatic flavor.
  • Marinate the Shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of soy sauce, cornstarch, and rice wine helps tenderize and flavor it, resulting in a more delicious final dish.
  • Stir-Fry in Batches: If cooking a large quantity of shrimp, stir-fry them in batches to prevent overcrowding the wok or pan. This ensures even cooking and prevents the shrimp from becoming tough.
  • Add Sauce at the End: Add the sauce towards the end of the stir-frying process to prevent it from reducing too much and becoming overly thick or caramelized.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried shrimp with snow peas and ginger is a simple yet flavorful dish that showcases the delicate flavors of fresh shrimp, crisp snow peas, and aromatic ginger. With its vibrant colors and textures, this dish is sure to impress your taste buds and is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. Whether served as an appetizer or main course, this stir-fry is a crowd-pleaser that can be easily customized to your liking, making it a versatile addition to any meal plan.
