This was wonderful. I re-read the directions a few times and wondered if things would cook correctly (I hate overcooked shrimp). But I followed them to a tee and everything was right on! Shrimp were tender, the marinade is a nice touch. I think I might add a little garlic next time.

Hi Jen's Kitchen, what a great dish! I love stir-fry's and this one was really wonderful! We added sliced red bell peppers & crushed red peppers which we added to the oil with the ginger. It was awesome! Served it with white rice but it wasn't necessary, it was so good alone. A definite keeper - thanks for posting. Suggested by TeresaS for "I Reccommend .... A New Thread." Diane Totally forgot the addition of sesame seeds, it was :yummy:, thanks Diane

This is a very nice stir fry and pretty with the snow peas and other veggies. I have to say I like my Asian food a bit on the spicy side, so I kicked mine up a bit with more soy sauce and chili paste. However, my teenage daughters loved it just this way and declared it their favorite shrimp dish ever. Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders game.
