I found this on a website and tweaked it, after having this in several restaraunts while living overseas. I cannot find it anyplace stateside so this is the best interpretation of Chili shrimp I could find.
SERVES 1 -2
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon dried red chili pepper (or chili flakes)
- 3 scallions, minced
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons sherry wine
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons chili sauce
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch, mixed with
- 2 tablespoons water
Directions
1
In wok or skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil until hot. Saute Shrimp, garlic, ginger, scallions and chile. Cook a few minutes.2
Add sherry, ketchup, chili sauce, and cornstarch mixture and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until shrimp are done. Serve with rice.3
Sometimes I dust the shrimp with flour before putting them in the oil, to make it like Chen's on iron chef! Enjoy!

I would say this was average. The serving size is perfect for two, though I made it for myself. I had no desire to get seconds. I did not have chili pepper or flakes so I used some chili powder. I would give this one more try with the correct ingredients- maybe it makes all the difference between average and outstanding?

I'm sorry, I hate giving a negative review. I didn't give it a star for that reason. I fixed this tonite, and neither I, nor my husband liked it. It was so ordinary... not one of those things you'd fix again and again.

The garlic, Ginger & Chili is a great combination that makes these prawns burst with flavor. I cut the oil back to 1 tbsp. I used a Thai sweet chili sauce (very hot) instead of our regular chili sauce. I got all the ingredients ready ahead of time and had them in two bowls-the prawns, garlic, ginger, dry chili & scallions in one and the remaining ingredients in another. It took me 5 minutes for the actual cooking - Thanks Jessica for a delicious recipe, to be repeated, for prawns

Great stuff, although I'm not sure it's great that I ate the "3-4 servings" all by myself! I'm already looking forward to making this again, it was delicious. Thanks!
