My son is coming for dinner tonight, although he's a fussy eater, this is one of his favourites, so he's chosen it. I sometimes add a sliced chilli to this too.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 tablespoons oil
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1 kg raw shrimp, peeled,deveined
1/4 cup white wine
1 teaspoon chicken stock powder
300 ml cream
2 tablespoons finely sliced green onion tops
hot cooked rice, to serve

Directions

1
Heat the oil in a wok over a medium-high heat.
2
Add the garlic and saute for 2 minutes, stirring.
3
Add the shrimp, and toss to coat, cook for about 3 minutes, or until just pink and firmed up.
4
Pour in the wine, and cook for 2 minutes, to reduce a little.
5
Add the stock powder and cream, and bring to the boil quickly.
6
Reduce the heat, and simmer for about 5 minutes or until reduced and thickened a little.
7
Stir through the sliced onion tops, and serve over hot rice in deep bowls, or a steak to make what we call Surf'n'turf..

Very good shrimp dish but I did doctor it up a bit. I added some Old Bay seasoning and some lemon juice. I did serve it over rice with coconut and cumin and peas in it. May try it over pasta next time.

It was OK but there was just no WOW factor to it. It was made as written. We had it over rice and ended up doctoring it a bit with some fresh grated Parmesan.

Absolutely yummy! My husband gives this dish two thumbs up. I had to cook the sauce a little longer than indicated in order to reduce it but otherwise I followed the recipe exactly and it came out great. Thanks for sharing, Jan!

Excellent!! This dish is very full of flavor & I loved that it is so easy to prepare. It made a terrific dinner on a busy night. I served the shrimp on birds nest pasta with steamed broccoli & french bread. I will make this again!!
