Recipe: Wok-Flashed Salt and Pepper Shrimp (serves 2)

Main Dishes - Fish, Shellfish
WOK-FLASHED SALT AND PEPPER SHRIMP

3/4 pound large, unshelled shrimp
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
5 garlic cloves, crushed
6 scallions, thinly sliced
Hot cooked rice (for serving)

Place shrimp in a bowl of water to soak while you prepare the other ingredients.

Mix the cornstarch, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl.

Remove shrimp from water, pat dry with a paper towel and add to the cornstarch mixture. Toss well, making sure all of the shrimp are covered with the mixture.

Heat the oil in a wok or skillet on high heat. When the oil is smoking, add the ginger, garlic and scallions. Stir-fry about 30 seconds.

Add the shrimp and stir-fry 4 to 5 minutes.

Serve shrimp over rice.

Makes 2 servings
