Ingredients

  • 1 TBS olive or grapeseed oil
  • 2 TBS rice wine vinegar
  • 2 TBS soy sauce
  • 3 TBS sesame oil
  • 2 TBS garlic paste
  • 2 TBS ginger paste
  • 2 TBS honey
  • 2 TBS chili with garlic sauce
  • 1 pound size 16-20 or 21-25 raw shrimp cleaned and deveined

Instructions

  • In a mason jar or small bowl, shake or whisk together the ingredients for the sauce until emulsified. Set aside.
  • Prep your shrimp, choose to leave the tails on or off. Blot shrimp dry.
  • In a large non-stick saute heat just enough oil to coat the pan. Once the oil is hot and begins to shimmer, add in the shrimp. Saute shrimp for 2 minutes, add in the sauce and continue to saute for another 3-4 minutes or until the shrimp is done.
  • Serve immediately alone, over rice or with Asian rice or glass noodles.

Notes

You can substitute chopped garlic and ginger for the pastes (however I am obsessed with the flavor and easy of Gourmet Garden Pastes.)
You can substitute red wine vinegar for the rice wine vinegar.
