Shrimp with Chili Garlic Sauce


This is not for the weak, these shrimp pack some heat. Serve these up for the big game!

1/4 cup chili garlic sauce
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic, minced
1 tsp ginger, minced
1 tbsp mirin
1 tsp fish sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
cilantro, chopped for garnish

In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients (chili garlic sauce through sesame oil). Whisk together until mixed completely. Add shrimp and place in the refrigerator and marinate for about an hour.

Heat a large non-stick sauté pan over medium-high heat.

Once sauté pan is hot, place shrimp (do not add sauce). Shrimp will cook quickly, so you will need to keep an eye out so you do not overcook the shrimp. During the last couple of minutes (right before shrimp are done), add the sauce and mix together.

Serve shrimp and sauce garnished with cilantro.

Enjoy!!

Wine pairing.....Pinot Gris.
