From the Frugal Gourmet, Jeff Smith. This is a simple appetizer recipe that Jeff created because he was inspired by a similar recipe he had eaten in San Francisco. It's an easy fix! You will have to peel and eat, so make sure to have plenty of napkins!
Ingredients:
1 lb large shrimp, raw and in shells
1 tablespoon light soy sauce (i like to use low-sodium)
1/2 tablespoon dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 green onions, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Directions:
1. Marinate the shrimp, in shells, for about 15 minutes in the soy sauce, sherry, and ginger. Drain.
2. Stir-fry in a hot pan (on med. high heat) with the peanut oil and garlic until the color of the shrimp changes to pink.
3. Add the green onions, salt and sesame oil. Toss until the onions barely wilt.
4. Serve hot and let guests remove the shells right at the table!
