Spicy Garlic Shrimp



Ingredients:

·         15 medium shrimp, butterflied (shells can be removed or left on)
·         2 tbsp. oyster sauce
·         1 tbsp. soy sauce
·         1 tbsp. fish sauce
·         1 tbsp. brown sugar
·         5 cloves of minced garlic
·         2 tbsp. lime juice
·         2 tbsp. oil for stir-frying
·         1 tsp. dried crushed chili
·         Salt (to taste)
·         Pepper (to taste)

Garnish:
·         Lime or lemon wedges
·         Fresh coriander chopped

Method :
1.      Make the marinade by combining in a mixing bowl: oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, lime juice, and chili.
2.      Place shrimp in the marinade and stir well to coat.
3.      Heat some oil in a wok or frying pan. When hot, add the shrimp along with the marinade.
4.      Stir-fry 2-3 minutes, or until shrimp are plump and pink. They will also be lightly browned from the sauce. Add salt to taste (already soy sauce got salt)
5.      Simply slide onto a serving platter and sprinkle with coriander and crushed pepper (if using). Add lemon or lime wedges to the side and serve.
