Speedy Szechwan Shrimp

Szechwan shrimp is supposed to survive pretty spicy, but nosotros are "heavy-spice" cowards, hence I adjusted the oestrus WAY downwardly on this recipe together with it was nonetheless real tasty. It is nice, low-cal together with salubrious together with made a keen sun repast served over my garden rice.

Peel together with devein a pound of large shrimp together with laid aside.

In a bowl, mix the next together with laid aside.
4 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoon crushed ruby pepper flakes (I used a scant 1/4 tsp.)
1/4 teaspoon solid soil ginger (I used around fresh ginger)

Heat 1 tablespoon of canola stone oil inwards a large skillet, over medium high oestrus together with add 1/4 loving cup sliced dark-green onions together with 2 cloves of minced garlic. Saute the onions together with garlic most thirty seconds hence throw inwards the shrimp together with saute them for a span minutes or until pink. Stir inwards the sauce together with laid upwards until the sauce thickens upwards (it volition simply cause got a infinitesimal at most).

NOTE: Since I was certain that the sauce was going to survive equally good spicey for hubby, I took the shrimp out of the sauce together with seat them nether the broiler to crisp them upwards a little, but that's non necessary. The sauce was first-class tasting if y'all tin lead keep the heat. I served these over garden rice.

GARDEN RICE
In a large sauce pan that has a tight plumbing equipment lid, saute one-half of a small-scale sweetness onion (diced) together with one-half loving cup diced celery inwards 1 tablespoon butter or canola oil. Stir inwards ane loving cup of raw long grained rice together with coat the rice amongst the butter. Add ane loving cup (diced) of your favorite veggies (I commonly purpose a frozen mixed veggie) together with ane ear of corn sliced into ane to 2 inch sections. Add 1 together with 1/2 cups of chicken broth together with 1/2 teaspoon of dark pepper. Bring to boil, stir, seat lid on, lower oestrus to a simmer together with laid upwards for twenty minutes.
