A flavorful dish in less than 15 minutes and under 200 calories. I saved time by using already peeled and deveined shrimps. The outcome surpass my expectation. The finely chopped ginger blended well with other fresh ingredients yet yield a subtle exotic taste. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

I made this for my husband and I when the kids were out . . . we loved it! I did all the prep work ahead of time, and when we were ready to eat, dinner was on the table within 10 minutes. I wouldn't serve this to my kids (ages 9 & 11) because it's pretty spicy, although my husband said he'd like it even spicier!

This was so great. Very easy and well seasoned. The minced gingeroot gave this a very distinct flavor. I served this over rice. Wonderful low-cal meal. Thanks

I wish I would have doubled the sauce. I did add addional chili sauce for spiciness. It tasted great served over rice.

An excellent dish that was fast and easy to make. The only differences I made were to double to sauce recipe and I used frozen shrimp that was already cleaned and cooked, didn't cook it long (just a couple of minutes to heat it) so it didn't overcook. I'll make this quite often. Thanks for sharing.

Outstanding! When I tasted it I couldn't believe that I had made something that tastes like one of our favorite restaurant dishes. My mom is going to flip when I make this for her. She loves this stuff. I did add about 1/2 cup chopped onions. Served over rice. I would give this more stars if I could. Sue, I am so glad I picked you for the Pick a Chef you have some excellent recipes!!

This was a very quick and easy dish to put together. I used whole dried chili's instead of the chili flakes, and asian hot chili sauce instead of Heinz chili sauce. My family thought the flavor was excellent. Thanks for a great recipe Sue.

Excellent recipe. It was easy to make and much appreciated. It took me a while to prepare because I used fresh shrimp that required cleaning so perhaps I'll try frozen shrimp next time. I find soy sauce to be really salty so I'll try substituting low sodium soy sauce or reduce the quantity and increase water and spices to compensate.

Excellent! Very flavorful, but not too hot (or my daughter wouldn't have liked it so much). Simple and quick to make. I used 1 1/2 lbs. of shrimp for our family of five without any changes to the sauce, except a little more garlic. You can't go wrong with this recipe!
