    Directions

    Prepare shrimp: Make a deep cut in the back of the shrimp 3/4 of the way through. When they cook, this will allow them to open up.

    Set a seasoned wok over a large burner on high heat. Once wok is very hot add oil (pour it around the sides of the wok so it coats it evenly). Add shrimp and allow to sear undisturbed for a few seconds. Add pepper, minced garlic, minced ginger and stir well. Season with soy and stir quickly to cook shrimp through until they are pink. Remove shrimp from wok and set aside on platter.

    Add a little more oil to the wok and saute vegetables for 2 minutes so they still have their bite but are just lightly seared. Add shrimp back to wok and toss everything together for just 1 minute. Serve in a large flat bowl.

    I just made it today. Fantastic! However, I doubled it using twice the amount of ingredients listed and did tweek it a little bit as I used cooked jumbo frozen peeled and deveined shrimp and Lawry's seasoned pepper.

    This recipe was easy and outstanding. Lots of flavor and a nice big kick. It's versatile, too. Add other proteins (like scallops or chicken), or add other vegetables (broccoli would be great). Serve it over pasta or rice. Pair with a dry riesling.

    You are so right! I will try doing this with cooked cubed white chicken breast, broccoli onions and peppers. That sounds incredible. Thanks for the idea!

    Uh, scallions are onions. The problem is with the site?

    Scallions are long green onions.

    I guess you could use regular onion if you don't want to use scallions. I don't see why not.

    This recipe calls for uncooked shrimp, but I used jumbo cooked frozen peeled and deveined shrimp today and it came out great!
